How can I conditionally render a different widget if the original overflows on device in Flutter?

Question

If a Text("This is a very big string of text") does not fit on the screen, how can I instead show a different and smaller Text() widget?

EDIT: For clarification. What I want is, if a widget overflows, to show a different widget, doesn't have to be limited to text.

Thanks.

Wrap your `Text` widget in the `Container`. If there is horizontal overflow, it will break and remaining text will be shown below. — Ayush Bherwani, Jan 11 '20 at 12:31
@AyushBherwani thank you but that is not what I'm looking for. I don't want to wrap text — Miguel Oliveira, Jan 11 '20 at 12:37

You can try this

(showDifferentText ? Text("Different text") : Text("This is a very big string of text"))

Here showDifferentText is bool.
