When edittext gets focus i am setting camera,voice recognition and drawingbrush image's visibilty to gone and save image button's visibilty to visible.I wanted to move save button to the extreme right but it is not moving and i know it can be done using RelativeLayout but i dont want to do that,so i am incresing edittext width when it gets focus.
i used the following to increase its width but nothing works
edittext.getLayoutParams().width=32;
edittext.setWidth(32); and edittext.setEms(50);
Please help me to move savebutton to extreme right using LinearLayout, i already tried gravity="right",it doesnt work or let me know how to increase edittext width at runtime?
View.OnFocusChangeListener onFocusChangeListener = new View.OnFocusChangeListener() {
#Override
public void onFocusChange(View v, boolean hasFocus) {
if (hasFocus) {
voiceRecognitionButton.setVisibility(View.GONE);
camerButton.setVisibility(View.GONE);
drawingbrush.setVisibility(View.GONE);
save.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
quickTaskEditText.setWidth(330);
} else {
voiceRecognitionButton.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
camerButton.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
drawingbrush.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
save.setVisibility(View.GONE);
quickTaskEditText.setWidth(220);
}
}
};
inOnCreateView of my fragment
quickTaskEditText = (EditText) view.findViewById(R.id.defaultfragmentquicktask);
quickTaskEditText.setOnFocusChangeListener(onFocusChangeListener);
You can set the width by using the following code:
final LayoutParams lparams = new LayoutParams(your width, your height); // Width , height edittext.setLayoutParams(lparams); return edittext;
If you want your edit text to move to extreme right you can add a rule
```
alignParentRight = true;
```
Hope this helps
You have to apply params back to your View.
LayoutParams param = yourView.getLayoutParams(); // Get existing params
param.width = 330;
yourView.setLayoutParams(param); // Apply updated params
In if (hasFocus) i am setting
voiceRecognitionButton.setVisibility(View.INVISIBLE);
camerButton.setVisibility(View.INVISIBLE);
instaed of GONE so that save image button appears at the extreme right
Problem :- In case i have more than 1 line in my edittext, the previous line goes out of the visible area. I was expecting it to grow downwards so that all lines are visible.

currentAddedListItem.setLayoutParams(layoutParams);
activityLayout.addView(currentAddedListItem, listItems.size());
listItems.add(currentAddedListItem);
Button button = currentAddedListItem.getAddButton();
lastAddedListItem = currentAddedListItem;
}
Image showing that the previous lines becomes invisible in case edittext enters new line:-
Try editing the layout height of your edit text ... prob looks with your composite height used
strong textjust use android:paddingEnd = "your "
As the title says. I need to write some text at ImageView. For that I was advised to use RelativeLayout. BUT there is not possible to use alignParentBottom (or maybe it is but I cant use margin then).
Problem is: I need to keep text at exactly some part of image even though it is resized or it is shown on different screen resolution etc. Is that possible?
CODE:
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#FFFFFF"
android:gravity="center" >
<!-- Speaker image -->
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/image"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:adjustViewBounds="true"
android:background="#ffffff"
android:src="#drawable/authorimg" />
<!-- Time -->
<TextView
android:id="#+id/timeTVid"
style="#style/TextWithShadow"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginTop="50dp"
android:text="2:59" />
</RelativeLayout>
I want the TextView to be somewhere in the middle but not exactly there.
EDIT: After first response tried (not working):
Horizontal position http://i59.tinypic.com/o76omg.png
Vertical position http://i59.tinypic.com/20tf7ky.png
I want to have "Your text" to be at the same position at the picture.
I found out that this is the solution. It's a shame that XML in android does not support percentage padding/margin so you have to do it programmatically as shown below. I just got the image width, width of frame and calculated it so the text is always on the same place on the image.
#Override
public void onWindowFocusChanged(boolean hasFocus) {
super.onWindowFocusChanged(hasFocus);
int paddingLeft;
frameHeight = imgFrameLayout.getHeight();
frameWidth = imgFrameLayout.getWidth();
imgWidth = image.getWidth();
imgHeight = image.getHeight();
// getting the difference of img width and frame width
int diff = frameWidth - imgWidth;
// if frame is bigger than image then set additional value to padding
// 20% image width + (diff/2)
if (diff > 0) {
paddingLeft = imgWidth / 100 * 20 + diff / 2;
}
// else set padding 20% of the image
else {
paddingLeft = imgWidth / 100 * 20;
}
timeTV.setPadding(paddingLeft, 0, 0, 0);
}
Use this example but it will only work for the Relativelayout:
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:gravity="center_vertical" >
<ImageView android:id="#+id/full_image_view"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"/>
<TextView
android:id="#+id/myImageViewText"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignLeft="#+id/myImageView"
android:layout_alignTop="#+id/myImageView"
android:layout_alignRight="#+id/myImageView"
android:layout_alignBottom="#+id/myImageView"
android:layout_margin="1dp"
android:gravity="center"
android:text="Your Text"
android:textColor="#000000" />
Might want to try using a FrameLayout. In any event, set textview to match_parent (both ways)
use android:gravity="center" (not layout_gravity). now if you want to adjust the centered position to make it offset a bit, you can use paddingLeft, paddingTop, etc to adjust your center.
I think you should create two separate xml files. the first one for the image and 2nd one for the overlayed text. then in your activity class you should use LayoutInflater. I created an example and I hope it is what you are looking for.
JavaCode:
private ImageView imgView;
private TextView tv00, tv01, tv02, tv03;
private LayoutInflater mInflater = null;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_image_overlayed_with_text00);
imgView = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.imgview);
tv00 = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.tv00);
tv01 = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.tv01);
tv02 = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.tv02);
tv03 = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.tv03);
//imgView.setImageBitmap(BitmapFactory.decodeFile("c:\\pic.jpg"));
imgView.setImageResource(R.drawable.pic);
mInflater = LayoutInflater.from(getApplicationContext());
View overView = mInflater.inflate(R.layout.textoverlay, null);
addContentView(overView, new LayoutParams(LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT,
LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT));
ImageviewXML:
<RelativeLayout 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"
android:paddingBottom="#dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
android:paddingLeft="#dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
android:paddingRight="#dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
android:paddingTop="#dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
tools:context="com.example.imageoverlayedwithtext00.ImageOverlayedWithText00$PlaceholderFragment" >
<ImageView
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:id="#+id/imgview" />
TextOverlayXML:
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"

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"

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"
android:layout_width="#dimen/detail_length"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="#string/app_name"
app:layout_column="3"
app:layout_columnWeight="1"
app:layout_gravity="start"
app:layout_row="1" />
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);
}
}
}

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.
