I do some RnD, As per some solutions on google I use Expanded and Flexible widget also but not get output even when i user Expanded or Flexible string will be vanished.

And Screenshot of my output

enter image description here

Instead of long string with ... at the end within a container, The string overlapping the container and show that UI warning

My Code is

            child: Column(
              children: [
                Visibility(
                  visible: notificationList[index].isHeader ? false : true,
                  child: Container(
                    margin: EdgeInsets.fromLTRB(
                        1, notificationList[index].isHeader ? 0 : 15, 1, 0),
                    padding: EdgeInsets.all(10),
                    decoration: BoxDecoration(

The flexible widget has to be the first child of the row for it to identify how much it will extend and remove the softwrap so there is no line break. I also removed the columns and left only the visibility.

Visibility(
  visible: notificationList[index].isHeader ? false : true,
  child: Container(
    margin: EdgeInsets.fromLTRB(
        1, notificationList[index].isHeader ? 0 : 15, 1, 0),
    padding: EdgeInsets.all(10),
    decoration: BoxDecoration(
      borderRadius: BorderRadius.all(
        Radius.circular(10.0),
      ),
      color: Colors.white,
      boxShadow: [
        BoxShadow(
          color: Colors.grey,
          blurRadius: 3,
          offset: Offset(0, 0), // Shadow position
        ),
      ],
    ),
    child: Row(
      children: [
        Container(
          width: 40,
          height: 40,
          margin: EdgeInsets.fromLTRB(0, 0, 15, 0),
          decoration: BoxDecoration(
            color: Color(0xfffce8ef),
            border:
            Border.all(color: Color(0xfffce8ef), width: 1),
            borderRadius: BorderRadius.all(Radius.circular(10)),
          ),
          child: Center(
            child: Icon(
              Icons.directions_car_outlined,
              color: Color(0xfff2426d),
            ),
          ),
        ),
        Flexible(
          child: Container(
            margin: EdgeInsets.fromLTRB(5, 0, 0, 0),
            child: RichText(
                overflow: TextOverflow.ellipsis,
                text: TextSpan(
                  style: const TextStyle(
                    fontSize: 15.0,
                    color: Colors.black,
                  ),
                  children: <TextSpan>[
                    TextSpan(
                        text:
                        '${notificationList[index].title}',
                        style: const TextStyle(
                            fontWeight: FontWeight.bold)),
                    TextSpan(
                        text:
                        ' (${notificationList[index].name})'),
                  ],
                )),
          ),
        ),
      ],
    ),
  ),
)

You use flexible in wrong widget, you should wrap one of the widget in row with expanded or flexible, like this:

Container(
                    margin: EdgeInsets.fromLTRB(1, 15, 1, 0),
                    padding: EdgeInsets.all(10),
                    decoration: BoxDecoration(
                      borderRadius: BorderRadius.all(
                        Radius.circular(10.0),
                      ),
                      color: Colors.white,
                      boxShadow: [
                        BoxShadow(
                          color: Colors.grey,
                          blurRadius: 3,
                          offset: Offset(0, 0), // Shadow position
                        ),
                      ],
                    ),
                    child: Row(
                      children: [
                        Container(
                          width: 40,
                          height: 40,
                          margin: EdgeInsets.fromLTRB(0, 0, 15, 0),
                          decoration: BoxDecoration(
                            color: Color(0xfffce8ef),
                            border:
                                Border.all(color: Color(0xfffce8ef), width: 1),
                            borderRadius: BorderRadius.all(Radius.circular(10)),
                          ),
                          child: Center(
                            child: Icon(
                              Icons.directions_car_outlined,
                              color: Color(0xfff2426d),
                            ),
                          ),
                        ),
                        Expanded(
                          child: Container(
                            margin: EdgeInsets.fromLTRB(5, 0, 0, 0),
                            child: RichText(
                                softWrap: true,
                                overflow: TextOverflow.ellipsis,
                                maxLines: 1,
                                text: TextSpan(
                                  style: const TextStyle(
                                    fontSize: 15.0,
                                    color: Colors.black,
                                  ),
                                  children: <TextSpan>[
                                    TextSpan(

                                        style: const TextStyle(
                                            fontWeight: FontWeight.bold)),
                                    TextSpan(text: ' Mickle Jaco'),
                                  ],
                                )),
                          ),
