How can I prevent a TextView, or any visual object, from wrapping to the screen and instead have them cropped programmatically?
I have a table view which is loaded with TextViews as cells. I need to crop the text inside the textview instead of wrapping.
Is there some code to do this? or is there any workaround?
For example, I have like this:
But what I want is:
I found my own way to fix this. I set the textView.SetMaxLines to 1 and it solved the problem for me.
You can use setSingleLine method:
TextView textView = (TextView) findViewById(...);
textView.setSingleLine(true);
and setEllipsize to remove ellipsize:
textView.setEllipsize(null);

I need to do this in my app:
and so I need a way to put the ImageView, the TextView and the EditText.
What's the best way to do it? I thought to put all into a TextView but the size of this is too small and so it's not a good idea.
I think also to use RelativeLayout but there are also other ways to do it?
Thanks
Everything is in horizontal, so I suggest to use LinearLayout. Inside it:
TextView with drawableLeft
EditText
TextView
As you see all views are horizontal so i suggest Linear Layout
and make orientation horizontal.
and use
1.use shape
2.text view
3.textview
I've seen many of questions for how to add TextView in a RelativeLayout programatically, but everybody adding it in LinearLayout with orientation vertical. Can any one suggest me or give me a link that how to add multiple TextView in RelativeLayout at right until it has space and then change the line.
I want a layout like this..
May be this works for you !
You can customize chips-edittext-library for your need. Customizing by setting background to transparent, and editable to false.
-> Or you can use any other library which is used for displaying emoticon in EditText and customize it according to your need. Like android-emoticon-edittext-spike
You can use the Flow Layout library that manages the view arrangement itself.
When there is no space left the added View is moved to the next line
I would like to achieve something like this:
I need that these two texviews would not have space between them. I specify no margin to them, but android already has a little bit margin by default and makes a little bit space. I would like to shrink that space :)
you can give negative margin to view.
Set same background for both TextView
You can specify Minus Margin like android:marginLeft=-5dp for Right side TextView or android:marginRight=-5dp for Left side TextView.
Thanks.
Try to create a second TextView inside the First one like
In XML, create a Second TextView like:

android:layout_alignRight="#+id/firstTxtView"
android:layout_alignTop="#+id/firstTxtView"
try to set TextView's background #0000(transparent).
try to set margin left=-5dp or something to second TextView

I'm creating some 50 button dynamically.
Text is getting set as followed:
btn.Text=result.Rows[i]["Col1"].ToString()+"\n"+result.Rows[i]["Col2"].ToString()
+"\n"+result.Rows[i]["Col3"].ToString();
where result is DataTable & btn is object for button.
Now the problem is some of the buttons are not getting displayed appropriately.
Referring to screenshot below,
in img1 - An unnecessary blank line is getting displayed after the first row.
in img2 - Text is not center aligned.
in img3 - TATAMOTORS is not getting displayed in single line even though there is a space on either side of t he button.
Please note that I'm not setting padding which can be the reason for this.
Any idea how to solve this?
Also, how alignment of text of a button can be set programmatically?
I know that this is not the Best of the question, but after spending hours on it, I'm unable to crack it.
Any help appreciated...
You can set the gravity of the button to customize how the text is aligned. This is exposed on the button by using the Gravity property. From the docs:
Sets the horizontal alignment of the text and the vertical gravity that will be used when there is extra space in the TextView beyond what is required for the text itself.
The values you can assign are found in the GravityFlags enum. For example:
button.Gravity = GravityFlags.Center;
Alignment of button content can be set with .setGravity(int)
In the original question, I wonder if the source text contained some extra space characters? That would explain img1 and img2.
Anyway, my need to left-align the text in a button led me to this page, and here's the solution I ended up with, based on Alix Bloom's answer:
Button myButton = new Button(getActivity());
myButton(Gravity.LEFT);
Button myButton = new Button();
myButton.setGravity(Gravity.RIGHT); //LEFT
Hope this help you. Worked for my (i was also strugling with this issue for some time)
