How can i made the button goes after the text , but the text can auto wrap like not in the st_horizontal() container.
like in the following code:
with st_horizontal():
st.,markdown("Confirm?")
st.button("✅ Yes")
st.button("❌ No")
if st.markdown(long_text),it can automatically wrap. But button still goes after the text.
Thanks
