Display short tags on one line

The picture below is an image of the functionality from the site. In the column “Enter a code” the user can enter data using TagsInput. I would like to slightly improve the functionality so that short tags are displayed on one line. I know that you can apply “inline”, but then long tags go beyond the borders of the modal window.

.tag {
    display: flexbox;
    align-items: center;
    margin: 5px 0;
    margin-right: 5px;
    padding: 0 5px;
    border: 1px solid black;
    border-radius: 5px;
    color: black;
    overflow: hidden;
    text-overflow: ellipsis;
    max-width: fit-content;
    white-space: nowrap;
    position: relative;
}

JavaScript

.tag {
    display: flexbox;
    align-items: center;
    margin: 5px 0;
    margin-right: 5px;
    padding: 0 5px;
    border: 1px solid black;
    border-radius: 5px;
    color: black;
    overflow: hidden;
    text-overflow: ellipsis;
    max-width: fit-content;
    white-space: nowrap;
    position: relative;
}

I have already tried many options, and looked at many answers on stackoverflow, but did not achieve the result. Perhaps you can give me a hint.

Would be nice if you add a bit more code that this. I’m guessing your tag class is on the children? What you need is to put the parent container in flex.

<body>
  <div class="tag-container">
    <div class="tag">100<div class="del">x</div></div>
    <div class="tag">200<div class="del">x</div></div>
    <div class="tag">300<div class="del">x</div></div>
    <div class="tag">400<div class="del">x</div></div>
    <div class="tag">500<div class="del">x</div></div>
    <div class="tag">600<div class="del">x</div></div>
    <div class="tag">700<div class="del">x</div></div>
    <div class="tag">800<div class="del">x</div></div>
    <div class="tag">800<div class="del">x</div></div>
    <div class="tag">1000<div class="del">x</div></div>
    <input
      class="input"
      placeholder="Enter a code"
    />
  </div>
</body>
