Question

This is probably something so easy, but I am having a hard time finding the right syntax. Basically I am using substring to cut a line short then I just want to add a “…” on the end. I just cant seem to find the right way to do it.

@if (@Model.Name.Length > 20)
{
    @Model.Name.Substring(0, 20) //"..." goes here
}
else
{
    @Model.Name
}

Answer 1

@string.Concat(Model.Name.Substring(0,20), "...")

Or even:

@(Model.Name.Substring(0, 20) + "...")
