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_alignBottom="#+id/firstTxtView"
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 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 have done some basic xml layout from the Internet and I am confused as to what android:gravity would be used for vs android:layout-gravity. The UI designer seems to respond well when I change the layout_gravity, but I get no response to the regular gravity? What is up with this?
Is this similar to layout parameters with fill-parent and match-parent? one is gone now.
android:gravity is a statement from a parent to its content, indicating where the content should slide within the available parent space (if there is room for such sliding).
android:layout_gravity is a request from a child to its parent, asking that it be slid in a certain direction (if there is room for such sliding).
layout_gravity - It contains and it belongs to component's parent layout. Like if you set one TextView in LinearLayout, LinearLayout's width is fill_parent, but TextView basically will set at left-top. So now if you would give layout_gravity=right then your TextView will be shifted to top-right corner. But the text will not change its place. i.e. you had been wrote "Hello world" then "hello world" will not be changed to right, but its parent textView will be changed to right. So here in this case it will belongs to LinearLayout, means parent Layout.
gravity- It contains and it belongs to TextView as per above explanation. if you will give gravity="right" then "Hello-world" text will go to right-top corner of TextView not LinearLayout.
I am trying to fit two EditTexts horizontally. What I am trying to accomplish is make the text keep scrolling right without the EditText extending in anyway when there is no more space in that specific EditText. This happens when the EditText is set to match_parent (width), but when I set an actually width or wrap_content, it breaks to the next line. Not the behavior I am hoping for. Any ideas?
If I understood your question correctly, you're saying you want the edit text to be a single line each? If so, have you tried using the xml attribute
android:singleLine
Or you can accomplish the same thing with:
setSingleLine() //called on the edit text
I just tested it out with 2 edit texts in a horizontal linear layout set to 100dp width each and I think it accomplishes the behavior you want.
You can try this:
Set both to fill_parent and layout_weight=1. This will align them side by side.
I need to create an animation in Android. I have 3 TextViews placed in an LinearLayout. All I want to do is the text field must come on to the screen as though it has been pulled out from the left end of the screen. Something similar to a marquee, however the text field must come from left end of screen one character at a time to occupy the left end of screen.
you must textView set textview property in your xml layout android:ellipsize="marquee" and you oncreate() method to set textview like youtextview.setSelected(true); now your textview running with marquee effect perfectly work for me!
another way you can add dynamically textview in coding you can follow this code:
yourtextview.setEllipsize(TruncateAt.MARQUEE);
yourtextview.setSelected(true);
