How can I make a text area expand horizontally instead of creating new lines in Webflow?

To make a text area expand horizontally instead of creating new lines in Webflow, you can utilize the CSS white-space property. By default, the white-space property is set to normal, which allows text to wrap to a new line when it reaches the width of its container. By changing this property to nowrap, you can prevent the text area from creating new lines.

Here's how you can achieve this in Webflow:

1. Select the text area element on your Webflow canvas.

2. In the right-hand sidebar, navigate to the "Styles" tab.

3. Scroll down until you find the "Typography" section.

4. Click on the "Add New Rule" button next to "Text" to create a new class or select an existing class that you want to modify.

5. In the "Styles" tab, under the "Typography" section, you will find the "white-space" property.

6. Change the value of the "white-space" property from normal to nowrap.

This will prevent the text area from expanding vertically and creating new lines. Instead, the text will continue on a single line until it reaches the edge of the container.

By adjusting the width of the text area container and combining it with the white-space: nowrap property, you can create a horizontal expansion effect for your text area.

Example CSS Code:

.class-name {  white-space: nowrap;}

Remember to replace .class-name with the class or ID of your text area element.

Note: Keep in mind that using white-space: nowrap may cause the text to overflow beyond the container, so you may need to adjust the container's width accordingly or use other CSS properties to handle overflow, such as overflow: hidden or text-overflow: ellipsis.
