To prevent text overflow, you can utilize the `Text` widget's properties. Setting `overflow: TextOverflow.ellipsis` will truncate the text with an ellipsis (...). Alternatively, `overflow: TextOverflow.clip` will simply cut off the excess text. For multi-line text, ensure the `maxLines` property is set appropriately and consider using `softWrap: true` (which is the default) to allow text to wrap to the next line.
