I'm using ChatKit library (https://github.com/stfalcon-studio/ChatKit/) for a chat feature in my app.
In the message list provided by the library, I also included images messages.
It works fine, but the bubble's layout of the images is ambiguous, as the following picture :
Bubble picture 1 and 3 should be aligned on the right side, but they are stick on the left in the available space for incoming messages.
Note that the default text messages bubbles are displayed correctly on
the right.
I didn't find any attributes for the layout in the library to configure this behaviour.
This is my XML for the message list :
<android.support.v4.widget.SwipeRefreshLayout
android:id="#+id/swipe_refresh_comments"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<com.stfalcon.chatkit.messages.MessagesList

android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_above="#+id/input_comment"
app:incomingDefaultBubbleColor="#color/lightGrayRetail"
app:incomingTimeTextColor="#color/white"
app:incomingDefaultBubblePressedColor="#color/lightGrayRetail"
app:incomingDefaultImageOverlayPressedColor="#color/lightGrayRetail"
app:outcomingDefaultBubblePressedColor="#color/pinkRetail"
app:outcomingDefaultImageOverlayPressedColor="#color/pinkRetail"
app:outcomingDefaultBubbleColor="#color/pinkRetail"
app:outcomingTimeTextColor="#color/colorMaterialGray" />
</android.support.v4.widget.SwipeRefreshLayout>
My incoming text message layout layout :

Outcoming layout :
<RelativeLayout

android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginBottom="8dp"
android:layout_marginLeft="16dp"

MessageHolder of outcoming :
public class CustomOutcomingMessageViewHolder extends MessageHolders.OutcomingTextMessageViewHolder<Comment> {
private TextView mOutcomingTimeTextView;
public CustomOutcomingMessageViewHolder(View itemView) {
super(itemView);
mOutcomingTimeTextView = itemView.findViewById(R.id.outcomingTimeTextView);
}
#Override
public void onBind(Comment comment) {
super.onBind(comment);
if(comment.getmContent() != null){
if(comment.getmContent().length() > 3){
SimpleDateFormat timeOutput = new SimpleDateFormat("HH:mm", Locale.FRANCE);
String commentPostedTime = timeOutput.format(comment.getmPostedDate());
mOutcomingTimeTextView.setText(commentPostedTime);
}
}
}
}
Any ideas ?
This happened to me without using any MessageHolder, I could fix it by assigning the same width to all images:
int width = Math.round( (float) getScreenWidthHeight().x * 0.8f); // width = 80% of screen's max width
int height = Math.round((float) bitmap.getHeight() / ((float) bitmap.getWidth() / (float) width));
Bitmap scaledBitmap = Bitmap.createScaledBitmap(bitmap), width, height, true);
where getScreenWidthHeight() is:
private Point getScreenWidthHeight(Activity activity) {
Display display = activity.getWindowManager(). getDefaultDisplay();
Point size = new Point();
display.getSize(size);
return size;
}
Did you check the sender ids in your code to be different for sender and receiver side by the id which is gotten from getId of message model? According to the library you need to determine the senderId in the Adapter initialization:
MessagesListAdapter<Message> adapter = new MessagesListAdapter<>(senderId,
imageLoader);
messagesList.setAdapter(adapter);
Library decides whether to align left or right according to senderIds comparison.
For anyone using the default MessagesListAdapter and ViewHolders, outgoing picture message ImageViews don't have their alignment set, but their parent view width is set to match_parent, which is why the image isn't aligned correctly.
item_outcoming_image_message.xml:
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginBottom="8dp"
android:layout_marginLeft="16dp"
android:layout_marginRight="16dp"
android:layout_marginTop="8dp">
<com.stfalcon.chatkit.utils.RoundedImageView
android:id="#id/image"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:adjustViewBounds="true"
android:layout_marginLeft="#dimen/message_outcoming_bubble_margin_left"
android:layout_marginStart="#dimen/message_outcoming_bubble_margin_left" />
So, after looking through some of the library code, I found one solution is to simply override onBindViewHolder():
messagesAdapter = new MessagesListAdapter<Message>(senderId, imageLoader) {
#Override
public void onBindViewHolder(ViewHolder holder, int position) {
super.onBindViewHolder(holder, position);
if (holder.getItemViewType() == -132) { // -132 is an outgoing picture message
RelativeLayout.LayoutParams params = (RelativeLayout.LayoutParams) holder.itemView.findViewById(com.stfalcon.chatkit.R.id.image).getLayoutParams();
params.addRule(RelativeLayout.ALIGN_PARENT_END);
}
}
};
Fixed it by setting a fixed width using ConstraintLayout
val holdersConfig = MessageHolders()
.setIncomingTextConfig(
CustomIncomingTextMessageViewHolder::class.java,
R.layout.item_custom_incoming_text_message
)
Here is my item_custom_outcoming_image_message

Here goes the screenshots of the unwanted spaces on the recyclerview
change your recyclerview Height from android:layout_height="match_parent" to
android:layout_height="wrap_content".
and why you are giving scrolling behavior to Your relative layout ??? RecyclerView already hve that!
There is no problem with your recyclerview, you should make changes in R.layout.rv_model file. You have set android:fitsSystemWindows="true" property to<TextView>.
Most of the time, your app won’t need to draw under the status bar or the navigation bar, but if you do: you need to make sure interactive elements (like buttons) aren’t hidden underneath them. That’s what the default behavior of the android:fitsSystemWindows=“true” attribute gives you: it sets the padding of the View to ensure the contents don’t overlay the system windows.
A few things to keep in mind:
fitsSystemWindows is applied depth first — ordering matters: it’s the first View that consumes the insets that makes a difference
Insets are always relative to the full window — insets may be applied even before layout happens, so don’t assume the default behavior knows anything about the position of a View when applying its padding
Any other padding you’ve set is overwritten — you’ll note that paddingLeft/paddingTop/etc is ineffective if you are using android:fitsSystemWindows=”true” on the same View
And, in many cases, such as a full screen video playback, that’s enough. You’d have your full bleed view with no attribute and another full screen ViewGroup with android:fitsSystemWindows=”true” for your controls that you want inset.
Or maybe you want your RecyclerView to scroll underneath a transparent navigation bar — by using android:fitsSystemWindows=”true” in conjunction with android:clipToPadding=”false”, your scrolling content will be behind the controls but, when scrolled to the bottom, the last item will still be padded to be above the navigation bar (rather than hidden underneath!).
Check if you want more information about android:fitsSystemWindows
Your item layout is filling one length of your screen each.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
xmlns:card_view="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" <!-- Here needs to be wrap_content -->
android:orientation="vertical">
<android.support.v7.widget.CardView
android:id="#+id/cl_CardView"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
And remove android:fitsSystemWindows="true" from the TextViews because they don't need to fit the system window.
I'm trying to create a fragment that lays out a series of custom views dynamically. The main content for this layout is a RelativeLayout nested in a LinearLayout (to center it horizontally), nested in a ScrollView.
The RelativeLayout has a few TextViews and a 9 patch ImageView that is meant to scale with the dynamically added custom views. However, the image (achievements_bgImageView below) is ending up as the size of the screen, and is not respecting the size of its parent RelativeLayout even after I've added the appropriate amount of custom views. The image scales fine when I manually set the size of achievements_mainLayout (see the commented out lines below), but does nothing if I try to let that RelativeLayout's wrap_content handle its own sizing.
The ScrollView IS respecting the size of the RelativeLayout, as all the content is present, it's simply the imageView that isn't stretching to match the content at this point.
Any help would be appreciated... My manual calculations don't seem to be good enough to account for different devices, despite the fact I'm accounting for screen density and I'm manually forcing the RelativeLayout to a constant width.
It's worth noting that the measured size of the RelativeLayout is always equal to the height of the screen, regardless of whether or not the sum of its content is greater or less than that height. So, essentially, WRAP_CONTENT is simply not doing what it's supposed to be doing. I have nothing referencing any edge of of the RelativeLayout, so circular dependencies shouldn't be a problem.

Try calling requestLayout on the children.
I recently had a similar problem and was similarly frustrated that things like invalidate and requestLayout seemed to do nothing. What I didn't understand is that requestLayout doesn't propagate down to its children; it propagates up to its parents. To re-measure something that was previously measured, I had to call requestLayout on the View that changed rather than the View I actually wanted to resize.
Android does NOT refresh layout of views with "wrap_content" once it has been displayed.
So if you add a child view, or modify the content dynamically, you're screwed.
I do agree that this is a nightmare and a real flaw in Android UI!
To solve that, I've written a static class that recomputes the sizes and forces the update of the layout for the views with "wrap_content"
The code and instructions to use are available here:
https://github.com/ea167/android-layout-wrap-content-updater
Enjoy!
A simple way to update the size of a View with WRAP_CONTENT is change the visibility to GONE and back to the old visibility.
int visibility = view.getVisibility();
view.setVisibility(View.GONE);
view.setVisibility(visibility);

MAY NOT WORK ON NEWER ANDROID VERSIONS
Ok, I solved this by manually measuring the RelativeLayout immediately after adding all the views and setting the mainLayoutParams height explicitly. I wish I was smarter and knew why it wasn't automatically doing this correctly in the first place, but oh well.
...
mainLayout.measure(0, 0);
ViewGroup.LayoutParams mainLayoutParams = mainLayout.getLayoutParams();
mainLayoutParams.height = mainLayout.getMeasuredHeight() + 10;
...
I encountered same issue when working with LinearLayout which has wrap_content and one child as TextView match_parent.
To fix this I did this:
Remove the TextView programatically and then add it again.
linearLayout.removeView(textView)
linearLayout.addView(textView)
I know it sounds stupid but it works.
In my case calling invalidate didn't work, only this worked.
Depending on your implementation you need to take care of view index inside its parent
You are getting this problem because you set your layout first and then add its content dynamically.
You are telling the layout to wrap to the content that is not yet their. Try using your layout inflater after you have grabbed your content
You should use NestedScrollView Instead of simple scrollview.

Set the layout parameters again(width and height), right after adding the view. This worked for me.
if the parent View is a FrameLayout, then do something like this:
ImageView view = (ImageView) LayoutInflater.from(activity).inflate(R.layout.image_object_view, null);
imageObjectsHolder.addView(view);
FrameLayout.LayoutParams param = new FrameLayout.LayoutParams(LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
view.setLayoutParams(param);
My problem was fixed by seting layout_width to some specific dp.
So changing from "wrap content" or "match parent"
to
android:layout_width="300dp"
will fix it, but i know it's not solution for all cases. But maybe you have some parent width, so you can apply the width to the textview.
height leave with wrap_content, and it will work.
My problem is very similar to How to get a layout where one text can grow and ellipsize, but not gobble up the other elements on the layout, but read on below why I can't use TableLayouts as proposed there.
I'm trying to create a listview row that basically looks like this:
| TextView | View 1 | View 2 |
All views contain variable width elements. The TextView has ellipsize="end" set. View 1 should align left of the TextView, while View 2 should align to the right of the screen. So, normally, there would be whitespace between View 1 and View 2. As the text in the TextView grows longer, the TextView should grow, pushing View 1 to the right until there is no more whitespace left. Then, ellipsize should kick in, cutting of the text in TextView and appending an ellipsis ("...") at the end.
So, the result should look something like this:
+----------------------------------------+
| short text [view1] [view2] |
+----------------------------------------+
| long text with ell ... [view1] [view2] |
+----------------------------------------+
I've tried:
TableLayouts, but they seem to make scrolling extremely slow on some devices.
RelativeLayouts, but I either had overlapping views, or view1 or view2 disappeared completely.
GridLayouts, but the TextView always grows until it takes up the whole width of the screen, thus pushing view1 and view2 out of the screen.
This is the GridLayout I tried:
<GridLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" >
<TextView
android:layout_gravity="left|fill_horizontal"
android:ellipsize="end"
android:singleLine="true"
android:text="Long text to demonstrate problem with TextView in GridLayout taking up too much space despite ellipsis" />
<TextView
android:layout_gravity="left"
android:text="(view1)" />
<TextView
android:layout_gravity="right"
android:text="(view2)" />
</GridLayout>
View 1 and View 2 are not really TextViews, I just used them in the example to simplify things.
Is there any way to achieve this without using TableLayouts?
EDIT:
As requested, here is my attempt at solving this with a RelativeLayout. The TextView takes up the full width of the screen in this case, so neither view1 nor view2 are visible.
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" >
<TextView
android:id="#+id/rl0"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:ellipsize="end"
android:singleLine="true"
android:text="Long text to demonstrate problem with TextView in GridLayout taking up too much space despite ellipsis" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/rl1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_toRightOf="#id/rl0"
android:layout_marginLeft="10dp"
android:text="(view1)" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/rl2"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_toRightOf="#id/rl1"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:layout_marginLeft="10dp"
android:text="(view2)" />
</RelativeLayout>
I seem to have found a potential solution to prevent a TextView in GridLayout from growing unboundedly and pushing out other views. Not sure if this has been documented before.
You need to use fill layout_gravity and set an arbitrary layout_width or width on the long TextView in need of ellipsizing.
android:layout_gravity="fill"
android:layout_width="1dp"
Works for both GridLayout and android.support.v7.widget.GridLayout
I'm a big fan of LinearLayouts, so here's my suggestion using those:
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="horizontal" >
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:layout_weight="1" >
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:ellipsize="end"
android:singleLine="true"
android:text="Long text to demonstrate problem with TextView in GridLayout taking up too much space despite ellipsis" />
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="(view1)" />
</LinearLayout>
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="right"
android:text="(view2)" />
</LinearLayout>
I will suggest you to play with layout_weight property of your widget
Example:
<LinearLayout 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"
tools:context=".MainActivity" >
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:weightSum="10">
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/ll_twoViewContainer"
android:layout_weight="8"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="horizontal">
<TextView
android:id="#+id/rl0"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:ellipsize="end"
android:singleLine="true"
android:text="Long text" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/rl1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginLeft="10dp"
android:layout_toRightOf="#id/rl0"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:minWidth="120dp"
android:text="(view1)" />
</LinearLayout>
<TextView
android:id="#+id/rl2"
android:layout_weight="2"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_toRightOf="#id/rl1"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:layout_marginLeft="10dp"
android:text="(view2)" />
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
finally your layout will look like as follow:
+----------------------------------------+
| short text [view1] [view2] |
+----------------------------------------+
| long text with ell ... [view1] [view2] |
+----------------------------------------+
I think you should create custom layout for your purpose. I don't know how to do this using only default layouts/view and make it work for all cases.
The trick which worked for me was to use maxWidth to restrict the width of the first view. You need to do it with Java, here is the basic logic:
firstView.setMaxWidth(parentView.getWidth() - view2.getWidth() - view1.getWidth() - padding * 2);
Not pretty, but it works.
I think there's just a small issue on the layout that could be solved, anchoring the view3 to the right and start from there to force the view to have a delimited area (hence being able to properly set the ellipse):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<TextView
android:id="#+id/rl3"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:text="(view2)" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/rl2"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_toLeftOf="#id/rl3"
android:text="(view1)" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/rl1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:ellipsize="end"
android:singleLine="true"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:layout_toLeftOf="#id/rl2"
android:text="Long text to demonstrate problem with TextView in GridLayout taking up too much space despite ellipsis" />
</RelativeLayout>
Hope this helps...
Regards!
Try this
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:baselineAligned="false"
android:orientation="horizontal">
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:gravity="center">
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:ellipsize="end"
android:singleLine="true"
android:text="Long text to demonstrate problem with TextView in GridLayout taking up too much space despite ellipsis"/>
</LinearLayout>
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:gravity="center">
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="left"
android:text="(view1)"/>
</LinearLayout>
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:gravity="center">
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="right"
android:text="(view2)"/>
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
Currently, all views are centered. You can change android:gravity property to meet your needs. For example, you may want to align view1 right and view2 left in which case last two LinearLayouts would look something like (with 5dp margin on the right and left respectively):
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:gravity="center|right">
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="left"
android:layout_marginRight="5dp"
android:text="(view1)"/>
</LinearLayout>
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:gravity="center|left">
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="right"
android:layout_marginLeft="5dp"
android:text="(view2)"/>
</LinearLayout>
I find my solution for the case number 2 (the one with a long text):
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:weightSum="3" >
<TextView
android:id="#+id/rl0"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="3"
android:ellipsize="end"
android:singleLine="true"
android:text="Long text to demonstrate problem with TextView in GridLayout taking up too much space despite ellipsis" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/rl1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginLeft="10dp"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:text="(view1)" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/rl2"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginLeft="10dp"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:text="(view2)" />
</LinearLayout>
The real problem is case one, and i didn't try a lot of things for this. I hope it helps (and if i have more spare time, i will try to achieve first one!).
If the views on the right get pushed over by the text by design, you might as well use a ListView instead of a GridView.
You would just need to make the base of the list item layout a RelativeLayout, and set rules like this:
You can set the two views on the right to alignParentRight (using android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"), but make sure the first view stays to the left of the second so it will push itself to the left as the views stretch out.
You can make the TextView on the left align to the left, but stay to the left of the first view (using android:layout_toLeftOf="#+id/viewId") so it won't overlap with the views.
Try using Layout Weight
<TableRow
android:id="#+id/tableRow3"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignBottom="#+id/tableRow2"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:gravity="center"
android:weightSum="10"
android:background="#android:color/black" >
<TextView
android:id="#+id/txtInningsTotal"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="2"
android:gravity="center"
android:text="0"
android:textColor="#android:color/white" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/txtTeamOneTotal"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="2.5"
android:gravity="center"
android:text="0"
android:textColor="#android:color/white" />
<View
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_weight="0.2" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/txtTeamTwoTotal"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="2.5"
android:gravity="center"
android:text="0"
android:textColor="#android:color/white" />
<View
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_weight="0.2" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/txtGrandTotal"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_weight="3"
android:gravity="center"
android:text="0"
android:textColor="#android:color/white" />
</TableRow>
Here i have taken table row in which there is layout weight sum which is of 10 means that it is 100% width of its parent. and in all its child views i have set width to 0Dp and given weight to 1 or 2. so that it will take up to that percent of total 10. so the layout will be adjusted accordingly screen and also there will be no issue of overlapping.
If i have understood you correctly then this is the answer you wanted.
Hope it Helps!
First, you must layout [view 2] to parent Right;
Again, you reference the reference to the last two layout!
<Relativelayout android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
<TextView
android:id="#+id/view2"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
/>
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_toLeft="#id/view2"
android:gravity="left">
<TextView
android:id="#+id/shortORlongtTextView"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_toRightOf="#id/view1"
android:ellipsize="end"
android:maxLines="1"
android:textSize="18dp"/>
<TextView
android:id="#+id/view1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
/>
</RelativeLayout>
I had the same problem with the grid layout. what i did is given a fixed width for the text view and also given layout_columnWeight property for each text view then the issue was fixed ,hope it helps ...
<TextView
android:id="#+id/txtName"
style="#style/MyDetailTitle"

GridLayout is like the other things on Android : flawed by design.
You will need a custom Layout, the following example will allow you to layout things like:
[ label | short text | very long label | short text ]
[ long label | very very very | label | very long text ]
[ | long text | | ]

Have fun.
TableLayout will give expected behavior. May cause performance issue as question's author mention, but works great with simple layout. If the row is repeatable and scrollable, consider use gridview instead
<TableLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:stretchColumns="1"
android:shrinkColumns="0"
>
<TableRow>
<TextView/>
<View1/>
<View2/>
</TableRow>
</TableLayout>
I have a horizontal LinearLayout containing a TextView followed by a Spinner next to it. This LinearLayout is dynamically inflated multiple times in a fixed vertical LinearLayout contained within a RelativeLayout.
The problem is that since I switched from Theme.light to Theme.holo.light, the last line of the TextView gets cut in half. This happens when the dynamic text is long and spans more than one row.
I have been able to fix this by adding bottom padding to the horizontal LinearLayout containing the TextView and Spinner.
This does not feel like a fix, but more of a hack. Can someone please give me some advice on how to properly fix this?
I have also read some other questions, but none seem to help.

I applied a LayoutGravity to the TextView item:
android:layout_gravity="fill"
I've encountered the same cut-off issue as shown at the screenshot. It is caused by the baseline alignment in the horizontal LinearLayout. TextView and Spinner have different baselines due to font size difference. To fix the issue it is needed to disable baseline alignment for the layout by setting:
android:baselineAligned="false"
or in the code:
layout.setBaselineAligned(false);
I had the same problem, and found that simply adding
android:includeFontPadding="false"
the final line of text no longer had its descenders clipped.
I added some dummy space after text by adding
textView.setText(firstString+"\n");
I tried all other solution.But this was the only solution worked for me
I found a different solution by extending TextView and adding a custom Class like this:
public class AdaptingTextView extends TextView {
public AdaptingTextView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyle) {
super(context, attrs, defStyle);
}
public AdaptingTextView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
super(context, attrs);
}
public AdaptingTextView(Context context) {
super(context);
}
#Override
protected void onSizeChanged(int w, int h, int oldw, int oldh) {
super.onSizeChanged(w, h, oldw, oldh);
// set fitting lines to prevent cut text
int fittingLines = h / this.getLineHeight();
if (fittingLines > 0) {
this.setLines(fittingLines);
}
}
}
Put the problematic textview inside a framelayout. I think the text view is not calculated correctly because of the sibling view, Spinner.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="horizontal">
<FrameLayout
android:layout_width="150dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<TextView
android:id="#+id/textView1"
android:layout_width="150dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginRight="20dp"
android:text="TextView"/>
</FrameLayout>
<Spinner
android:id="#+id/spinner1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>
</LinearLayout>
When this occurs, you should ensure that the TextView is not growing larger than it's container -
If a TextView is set to wrap_content and it's container (or an ancestor container) doesn't leave room for the TextView to grow into it can be occluded.
If that's not the case, it's also possible the onMeasure() of the TextView sometimes doesn't correctly measure the tails of letters, non-latin characters or the effects from text being italic. You can correct for this by setting a global style for your TextView so it will be picked up without needed to change your entire code base:
Ensure that you're application/activities use a custom theme like so:
<style name="Custom" parent="#android:style/Theme.Light">
<item name="android:textViewStyle">#style/Custom.Widget.TextView</item>
</style>
<style name="Custom.Widget.TextView" parent="#android:style/Widget.TextView">
<item name="android:gravity">fill</item>
<item name="android:padding">1sp</item>
</style>
The answer by #Rynadt was really helpful in getting to the above stage. Setting the gravity of the Text inside the View ensures on some devices that occlusion never takes place (The text is correctly fitted inside the view), on others a helping hand with padding of an sp value, ensures that the tails et al are accounted for with a TextSize specific value.
My solution was close to the accepted one, but I had to change it to
android:layout_gravity="fill_vertical"
instead. Otherwise the other rows would have been stretch as well with added line breaks at random places. For example, the biggest row had 4 lines, so another row was changed from
this is a testphrase
to
thi
s is
a testph
rase
try with removing android:paddingBottom="20dp"
from
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:paddingBottom="20dp"
android:paddingLeft="10dp"
android:paddingRight="10dp"
android:paddingTop="10dp" >
getViewTreeObserver().addOnGlobalLayoutListener does not work in a recycler view. If you're using a recycler, use View.addOnLayoutChangeListener:
I found that the ellipsizing I defined for textView in xml was not always reflected so I programmatically set it before reassigning the text property. This worked for me.
textView.addOnLayoutChangeListener(new OnLayoutChangeListener() {
#Override
public void onLayoutChange(View v, int left, int top, int right, int bottom,
int oldLeft, int oldTop, int oldRight, int oldBottom) {
textView.removeOnLayoutChangeListener(this);
float lineHeight = textView.getLineHeight();
int maxLines = (int) (textView.getHeight() / lineHeight);
if (textView.getLineCount() != maxLines) {
textView.setLines(maxLines);
textView.setEllipsize(TextUtils.TruncateAt.END);
// Re-assign text to ensure ellipsize is performed correctly.
textView.setText(model.getText());
}
}
});
If you have this problem and your TextView is inside a RelativeLayout, try switching the RelativeLayout for a LinearLayout.
That fixed the problem for me
You can use a global layout listener for a TextView in any type of ViewGroup.
final TextView dSTextView = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.annoyingTextView);
dSTextView.getViewTreeObserver().addOnGlobalLayoutListener(new ViewTreeObserver.OnGlobalLayoutListener() {
#Override
public void onGlobalLayout() {
dSTextView.getViewTreeObserver().removeOnGlobalLayoutListener(this);
float lineHeight = dSTextView.getLineHeight();
int maxLines = (int) (dSTextView.getHeight() / lineHeight);
if (dSTextView.getLineCount() != maxLines) {
dSTextView.setLines(maxLines);
}
}
});
You can read more about it here
I know it's so late, but this is work like charm for me.
add this code to your textview
android:ellipsize="marquee"
android:layout_weight="1"
I think there is very little you can do to get this working by altering the layouts. As I have found that some methods work only in some cases. I think it depends on the entire layout hierarchy and is not a one-size-fits-all solution. I have also noticed that it happens especially when you have a different font that you want to set to the TextView.
A sure shot method that I have experimented and tested is that you can set the font attributes in code after the view is inflated. I am assuming that you have a font in the assets/fonts folder that you want to you.
For eg in a Fragment:
#Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
Bundle savedInstanceState)
{
View view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_view, container, false);
TextView tv = (TextView)view.findViewById(R.id.text_view);
tv.setText("Insert text that needs to be displayed");
AssetManager assetManager = getContext().getAssets();
Typeface typeFace = Typeface.createFromAsset(assetManager, "Fonts/OpenSans-Light.ttf");
tv.setTypeface(typeFace , 0); // 0 is normal font
tv.setPadding(10, 0, 10, 0); // This is not mandatory
}
And in an Activity:
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
{
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(Resource.Layout.main_activity);
TextView tv = (TextView)this.findViewById(R.id.text_view);
tv.setText("Insert text that needs to be displayed");
AssetManager assetManager = getContext().getAssets();
Typeface typeFace = Typeface.createFromAsset(assetManager, "Fonts/OpenSans-Light.ttf");
tv.setTypeface(typeFace , 0); // 0 is normal font
tv.setPadding(10, 0, 10, 0); // This is not mandatory
}
I have this same problem, and its very annoying.
It only happens with Arabic text.
If you make the label multi-line and adding a \n at the end of your string, it would fix it, but the problem is that there would be a big gap between this label and the object below it, due to the fact that this field now has a new empty line below it.
A custom control can be done to get around that. But overall, this is an annoying bug.
Best workaround for this is to add a dummy View of desired height (i.e. this will add padding itself) at the bottom of your view.
<TableRow
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginLeft="5dp"
android:layout_marginRight="5dp" >
<View
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="30dp"/>
</TableRow>
Like in my case I added one more table row at the bottom of the view. Hope this could help someone.
Add padding to the bottom of the text view:
android:paddingBottom="24dp"
I had the same problem and found a handy solution. I get the number of lines of the TextView after rendering and set the height according to the number of lines. Here is the code.
TextView textView = (TextView) layout.findViewById(R.id.textView);
textView.setText(this.text);
textView.post(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
int linesCount = textView.getLineCount();
textView.setLines(linesCount);
}
});
For me, this solution worked like a charm.
The height and width of my outermost layout was set dynamically, so the TextView contained within got it's text cut even if I set android:maxLines in my xml (for different devices it was behaving differently).
After trying out different methods, finally I got a solution that fixed my issue.
Textview:
public class CustomTextView extends androidx.appcompat.widget.AppCompatTextView {
public CustomTextView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyle) {
super(context, attrs, defStyle);
}
public CustomTextView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
super(context, attrs);
}
public CustomTextView(Context context) {
super(context);
}
#Override
protected void onSizeChanged(int w, int h, int oldw, int oldh) {
super.onSizeChanged(w, h, oldw, oldh);
// set fitting lines to prevent cut text
int fittingLines = h / this.getLineHeight();
if (fittingLines > 0) {
this.setLines(fittingLines);
this.setEllipsize(TextUtils.TruncateAt.END);
}
}
}
xml:
<com.myproject.android.customviews.CustomTextView
android:id="#+id/tv_partner_description"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:gravity="top"
android:textColor="#color/white"
android:textSize="#dimen/text_small_medium" />
create theme as for particular language like style-ar which cut-off textview:
<style name="EnnodaCustomTextView" parent="Widget.AppCompat.TextView">
<item name="android:paddingTop">1dp</item>
<item name="android:paddingBottom">1dp</item>
</style>
Apply it in you AppTheme to reflect in overall app for padding bottom, as :
<item name="android:textViewStyle">#style/EnnodaCustomTextView</item>
Note : create same style name in default styles.xml with no item tags for padding..(where no need of extra padding )
I finally fixed it!
I try to add String to the TextView in Service and then call scrollTo(), the last line be cut off!
The scrollTo() should be call in "Runnable", like:
private ScrollView mScrollView;
public void scrollToBottom()
{
mScrollView = (ScrollView) findViewById(R.id.debug_textview_scrollview);
mScrollView.post(new Runnable()
{
public void run()
{
mScrollView.fullScroll(View.FOCUS_DOWN);
}
});
}
I think it because in the monent of call scrollTo() in service, the update of TextView is not ready.
