Having 4 views A (TextView), B(icon), C(TextView), D (TextView) horizontally aligned next to each other.
B and D have fixed width. The text will be filled in the onBindView().
Their parent's width could be calculated based on the screen orientation.
It requires to show A as much as possible, and the C will consume the rest or up to its content width (if not enough space then show ellipsis).
And all A, B, C, D should left align the right edge of the previous one.
There are a few cases but these four cover most of them.
1. Parent width is enough for all
|-|AAAA|B|CCCCCCCC|DDD|--------------|-|
2. C is too large and have to show ellipses
|-|AAAAA|B|CCCCCCCCCCCCC...|DDD|-|
3. A is large and have to show ellipse for C to be able to show
|-|AAAAAAA..........|B|CCCCCCCC|DDD|-|
4. the parent width is not enough for showing A and C completely, so A and C both show ellipses
|-|AAAAAAAAAAAAAA...|B|CCCCC...|DDD|-|
so the rule is to show A as much as possible, C shows either in full or with ellipses, in case with showing C's minWidth and still cannot show the A in full then show A with ellipsis.
Tried LinearLayout, RelativeLayout and ConstraintLayout and cant get the desired result.
this has two maxWidth for A and C, the problem is if either A or C is too small the other one may still show ellipsis without using all available space.

If do it in a derived view and override the onMeasure(), the calculation is not straight forward and the A, C width may not immediately available.
How to do it just in layout xml, or is it possible?
I'm not sure if this meets your requirements, but this is my attempt using ConstraintLayout
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"

app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent"/>
<TextView
android:id="#+id/two"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="fixed"
app:layout_constraintBaseline_toBaselineOf="#id/one"
app:layout_constraintLeft_toRightOf="#id/one"
app:layout_constraintRight_toLeftOf="#id/three"/>

app:layout_constraintBaseline_toBaselineOf="#id/one"
app:layout_constraintLeft_toRightOf="#id/three"
app:layout_constraintRight_toRightOf="parent"/>
</androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout>
The important parts here are that the first "stretchable" view uses wrap_content while the second uses 0dp plus app:layout_constraintWidth_default="wrap". This will give the space to the first view at a higher priority than the second view, but will allow both to grow and shrink.
The only problem I've found is that, when the first view's text is very long, it can push the other views on top of each other. This could potentially be solved by adding a maximum width to the first view:
app:layout_constraintWidth_max="256dp"
Some screenshots:

If I have two textviews vertically aligned where either the one OR the other could contain the longer text, how can I vertically align these so their background image LOOKS like it is one complete background for both TextViews (so one big box no matter which of those views contains the longer text)
Reason is that I use the textviews on top of a picture but need to shadow them in case the picture has the same color as the textview
UPDATE:
As the comments suggested I now used a linear layout like this, but now there is a very small gap between the textviews that wasn't there with ConstraintLayout. Any idea how to fix?
<androidx.appcompat.widget.LinearLayoutCompat
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_marginEnd="10dp">

android:textColor="?attr/colorOnPrimary"
android:textSize="16sp"
android:textStyle="bold"/>
</androidx.appcompat.widget.LinearLayoutCompat>
UPDATE 2
I now used a complete image as background of the linear layout, but sadly this solution does not work either, the linear layout only constraints to the lower text view, which means if the lower is shorter then the upper, the upper one gets truncated
Here is how you can get the two TextViews to have the same width regardless of which view has the longer text.
<androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<TextView
android:id="#+id/textView1"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#android:color/darker_gray"
android:text="Here is some long, long text."
android:textSize="28sp"
app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="#id/barrierEnd"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintWidth_min="wrap" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/textView2"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#android:color/darker_gray"
android:gravity="center"
android:text="Bottom"
android:textSize="28sp"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="#id/barrierEnd"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toBottomOf="#+id/textView1"
app:layout_constraintWidth_min="wrap" />
<androidx.constraintlayout.widget.Barrier
android:id="#+id/barrierEnd"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="0dp"
app:barrierDirection="end"
app:constraint_referenced_ids="textView1,textView2"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent" />
</androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout>
This solution was borrowed from here. I took a stab at explaining why it works here.
For one big blue background as you said, you can use a vertical LinearLayout as a container of both TextViews and set its background color to blue.
If you are using a vertical LinearLayout, you could set android:layout_width (of the TextViews) to "match_parent" instead of "wrap_content".
Edit: Into the outer vertical LinearLayout put an another vertical LinearLayout with android:layout_width="wrap_content" and the 2 TextViews inside with android:layout_width="match_parent"
If you're using constraint layout then
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf
would be working for you , also using baseline would be very useful too.
I have 2 views in a layout - TextView and Button. TextView is aligned/anchored to the left side and the button is to the right side.
What I'm trying to achieve is the natural "wrap behavior" of the Button. When TextView will be wide enough so that there won't be space for the button (in the same line), it should move below the TextView, while still anchored to the right.
Here are 3 scenarios for the layout which I want to achieve:
I was trying to make this with FlexBoxLayout, but the button appears on the left side after wrapping.
<com.google.android.flexbox.FlexboxLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
app:flexDirection="row"
app:flexWrap="wrap"
app:justifyContent="space_between"
>
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="text text"
android:gravity="start"
/>
<Button
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:gravity="end"
android:text="Button"
/>
</com.google.android.flexbox.FlexboxLayout>
So how can I do that? It doesn't need to be FlexBox, I can use any layout, even 3rd party.
Use justifyContent="flex_end" in the parent and set layout_flexGrow to the children like this works for me.
<com.google.android.flexbox.FlexboxLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:layout_width="300dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
app:flexDirection="row"
app:flexWrap="wrap"
app:justifyContent="flex_end">
<TextView
android:id="#+id/textview2"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:padding="10dp"
android:text="blah blah"
app:layout_flexGrow="1" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/textview3"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:padding="10dp"
android:text="( . )( . )"
app:layout_flexGrow="0" />
</com.google.android.flexbox.FlexboxLayout>
No need for a 3rd party layout.
ConstraintLayout should be more than enough - with a small tweak in code.
Your TextView will have straightforward constraints, set to parent layout (start, top, end).
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools">
<TextView
android:id="#+id/text"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="48dp"
android:layout_marginEnd="8dp"
android:layout_marginStart="8dp"
android:layout_marginTop="8dp"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintHorizontal_bias="0.0"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent"
tools:text="Text text text text text text" />
<Button
android:id="#+id/button"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginEnd="8dp"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="#+id/text" />
</android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout>
In the code, just check the width of the TextView and compare it with the width of the parent (basically check it should overlap with the button).
If it does change(you will have to do this in code but this is the principle):
app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="#+id/text"
to
app:layout_constraintTop_toBottomOf="#+id/text"
If you need to do this dynamically ConstraintLayout has neat feature "Keyframe animations" that creates awesome looking animations when you are changing constraints.
Doesn't seem like there is a way to do it with Flexbox. I would just do it programmatically when you've inflated the resource (in onCreateView() or something like that). The parent of both of the views would be a RelativeLayout, with the Button aligned to the TextView top when the widths combined don't exceed the width of the RelativeLayout, and aligned to the bottom of the TextView when the widths are larger than that.
I have an arbitrary length textview+icon (icon+text) that needs centering on the screen. On the same row, there is a button aligned to the right side of the screen. (X)
| icon+text | X |
Using a LinearLayout I can center it with the view, but the button on the right shifts it left.
With a relative layout, I can achieve what I want but if the text is too long the button overlaps the text.
What's the right way to do this? I haven't used constraintLayout before, would that solve it?
I suggest you to use a constraint layout,
Example:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
tools:context=".YourActivity">
<TextView
android:id="#+id/my_text_view"
android:text="My Long Text That must not overlap the button"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:gravity="center"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginStart="8dp"
android:layout_marginEnd="8dp"
app:layout_constraintHorizontal_chainStyle="spread_inside"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toStartOf="#+id/my_btn"
app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="#+id/my_btn"
app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="#+id/my_btn"/>
<Button
android:id="#+id/my_btn"
android:layout_marginTop="16dp"
android:text="My Nice Button "
android:layout_marginEnd="8dp"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
app:layout_constraintStart_toEndOf="#id/my_text_view"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"/>
</android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout>
Example Output:
You can set it like this,
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<Button
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="0.2"
android:drawableLeft="#mipmap/ic_launcher"
android:text="Click" />
<TextView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="0.8"
android:gravity="center"
android:text="TextView" />
</LinearLayout>
just use a Relative Layout.
Center your Textview
and put toRightOf=txtViewsName on the button.
//UPDATED Forcing Widths in DP to ensure text is always centered and never overlaps button.
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:drawableLeft="#mipmap/ic_launcher"
android:maxWidth="230dp"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:ellipsize="end"
android:text="My text to show test abcdefghyijkldkf here" />
<Button
android:layout_width="80dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:text="Button" />
</RelativeLayout>
You will need to adjust the button width and textview maxwidth to match your design, and confirm on preview all resolutions, but dp should cover you pretty well in this case.
NOTE*
This simply answers your issue, but does not do any funny behavior, i.e. if text grows too much ignore center command and start moving to the left, this does not do that. If that is your desire, please update your question.
//Centering Text in left view and using weight to ensure text area takes proper percentage of the space (based on your comments, not the layout you are looking for, but I'll leave it in case it helps someone else).
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:weightSum="10">
<TextView
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="7"
android:drawableLeft="#mipmap/ic_launcher"
android:gravity="center"
android:text="My text to show here" />
<Button
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="3"
android:text="Button" />
</LinearLayout>
for best practice i think ConstraintLayout is the best solution for designing and yes of course it helps you for what are you looking for.
for more info check this Build a Responsive UI with ConstraintLayout and this
ConstraintLayout.
Since your ImageButton on right has a fixed width (let's say 40dp for the purpose of this example) you can achieve the desired result by adding a margin of the same width at the end of your TextView to ensure that they're not overlapping. To keep the TextView centered on the screen you have to add the same margin at the start as well:
<android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<TextView
android:id="#+id/textview"
android:text="TextView"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginStart="40dp"
android:layout_marginEnd="40dp"
app:layout_constrainedWidth="true"
app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent" />
<ImageButton
android:id="#+id/button"
android:layout_width="40dp"
android:layout_height="40dp"
app:layout_constrainedWidth="true"
app:layout_constraintHorizontal_bias="1.0"
app:layout_constraintVertical_bias="0.0"
app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintStart_toEndOf="#id/textview"
app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent"/>
</android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout>
If you want to center the text within the TextView use android:gravity="center":
If the ImageButton's width was wrap_content then this approach wouldn't work, because there is no way to constraint the end of the TextView both to the end of the parent (so it's centered on the screen) and to the start of the ImageButton (so they don't overlap if the text gets long) at the same time.
In the end I ended up using RelativeLayout per Sam's suggestion with maxWidth and margin set on the TextView.
I can't figure out how to render my listItems correctly. Everything seems fine until the text title is too long. Looking at the pics below, I have the Title anchored on the left side of the listItem View and to the right of the imageView. I've even tried anchoring the right side to the right edge of the entire view but with no success. If the user enters a title too long the views overlap.
I want the title to be centered between the imageview and the left side of the entire listItem view. I have provided pics of how this all renders. Any help would be greatly appreciated. When the title gets long enough, it wraps the text which is fine. At this point I'd even settle for the trailing ... but I would prefer to have the text wrap. I just don't want to overlap the imageview. I have also posted the xml code

Inside the ConstraintLayout try to always use "0dp" for your heights and widths and always set the app:layout_constraint..._to...Of for all 4 sides for all your views. Examine the outcome and then fine tune to get the expected result. Do this in the XML instead of in the visual editor; in my experience it is quicker and it avoids the layout_editor_absolute... settings.
Set android:layout_width="0dp" for both your TextViews. In a ConstraintLayout, a value of "0dp" basically means match the constraints. A value of "wrap_content" doesn't take constraints into account when measuring the views, just when positioning them.
I have 3 TextViews inside a linearLayout (horizontal), and when the last textview is too big or there is no space for it, it is matching parent and looking like the image below:
Image Here
What I want is to, IF the textview reaches the linearlayout's width, then, the textview should be moved below "Property" textView. (next line)
Take a look at how it should be:
Image here
That's a snippet of my XML:
<LinearLayout
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_marginTop="5dp">
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearance"
android:text="Property"
android:id="#+id/txtPropertyType" />
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearance"
android:text="/ 127 m"
android:id="#+id/txtArea"
android:layout_marginLeft="10dp" />
<TextView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearance"
android:text="/ 3 roomsssssssssdddd"
android:singleLine="false"
android:id="#+id/txtNumRoom"
android:layout_marginLeft="5dp" />
</LinearLayout>
Thanks in advance x)
Modify your xml and add another TextView below the LinearLayout:
<LinearLayout
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_marginTop="5dp">
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearance"
android:text="Property"
android:id="#+id/txtPropertyType" />
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearance"
android:text="/ 127 m"
android:id="#+id/txtArea"
android:layout_marginLeft="10dp" />
<TextView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearance"
android:text="/ 3 roomsssssssssdddd"
android:singleLine="false"
android:id="#+id/txtNumRoom"
android:layout_marginLeft="5dp" />
</LinearLayout>
<TextView
android:visibility="gone"
android:layout_below="#+id/linearLayout"
android:id="#+id/long_room"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="dfgdfdfgddfgdfgdd"/>
Now, you have 2 options:
OPTION 1: Check the length of the room number textview. If it's more than, say, 12 (you have to find the number considering all letters to be widest ones - like w), then make the visibility of txtNumRoom GONE and that of long_room visible.
OPTION 2: Find the height of the txtNumRoom before it gets rendered and displayed. If this height is greater than height of txtArea, that means the textview has gone multiple-lines. Again, in that case,make the visibility of txtNumRoom GONE and that of long_room visible.
Refer to this question to know how to find height of a textview programmatically before it gets rendered.
Just add android:singleLine="true" on each text view. Your problem here is that your TextView is spreading on more than one line.
Since August 2020, there is the option to use a ConstraintLayout with the virtual layout Flow.
Your elements should be wrapped in a ConstraintLayout together with a Flow element like in the following sample XML:
<androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_marginStart="16dp"
android:layout_marginTop="16dp"
android:layout_marginEnd="16dp"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto">
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"

The elements that are involved in the wrapping (all elements in the line that must wrap if too big) must have ids which are then added in the app:constraint_referenced_ids tag of Flow.
app:flow_horizontalStyle="packed" and app:flow_horizontalBias="0.0" are necessary to left-align your text (flow_horizontalBias won't work unless elements are packed), but can be changed depending on the layout you want to achieve.
app:flow_wrapMode tells the flow-layout how to position elements, and must be set to either chain or aligned, once again chain was necessary to be able to left-align the text.
It is also important to set the height of the Flow element to 0dp so it can determine how much space it needs by itself.
The TextView below should be constrained to the Flow element so that it can be positioned dynamically depending on the position of the elements inside.
