You can copy paste run full code below
You can use AnimatedContainer with Text overflow: TextOverflow.fade
code snippet

ShowMore(
          content: '...',
          desiredMaxHeight: 200.0,
          desiredMinHeight: 56.0,
        ),
...
AnimatedContainer(
          duration: const Duration(milliseconds: 700),
          width: double.infinity,
          height: showStatus == ShowStatus.EXPANDED
              ? widget.desiredMaxHeight
              : widget.desiredMinHeight,
          child: Text(
            widget.content,
            softWrap: true,
            overflow: TextOverflow.fade,
          )),

  final double desiredMaxHeight;

  /// The height in pixels of the smallest possible size an AnimatedContainer will be
  final double desiredMinHeight;

  const ShowMore(
      {Key key,
