I have a few Button listed vertically and I need all of them to have the same width, but also to display all text inside.
Basically I need width for all of them as a wrapped width of the largest one.
Hope I explained it well.
Now... I already have one layout that is working on my Samsung Galaxy S2 (4.1.2), but on friend's phone - Samsung GT-N7100 (note2) and android 4.4.2 - it is not working - some text is not displayed in the Button.
This is my layout:
<RelativeLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<TextView
android:text="word"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="48dp"
android:textSize="30sp"
android:gravity="center"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:id="#+id/word"/>
<TextView
android:text="14/36\nM: 1"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="80dp"
android:id="#+id/score"
android:layout_toRightOf="#+id/word"
android:gravity="right|center"
android:paddingRight="10dp"/>
<LinearLayout
android:layout_centerInParent="true"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="#+id/adapter">
<Button
android:text="1"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="48dp"
android:id="#+id/opt1"/>
<Button
android:text="2"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="48dp"
android:id="#+id/opt2" />
<Button
android:text="3"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="48dp"
android:id="#+id/opt3" />
<Button
android:text="4"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="48dp"
android:id="#+id/opt4" />
<Button
android:text="5"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="48dp"
android:id="#+id/opt5" />
</LinearLayout>
<Button
android:text="Next"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="48dp"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:id="#+id/next"/>
</RelativeLayout>
Try setting android.width="auto"
You can extend the LinearLayout to force all its childs to have the max width:
// LinearLayoutButtonsHolder.java
package github.yaa110.widget;
import android.content.Context;
import android.util.AttributeSet;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.LinearLayout;
public class LinearLayoutButtonsHolder extends LinearLayout {
public LinearLayoutButtonsHolder(Context context) {
super(context);
}
public LinearLayoutButtonsHolder(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
super(context, attrs);
}
public LinearLayoutButtonsHolder(Context context, AttributeSet attrs,
int defStyle) {
super(context, attrs, defStyle);
}
#Override
protected void onAttachedToWindow() {
super.onAttachedToWindow();
if (getChildCount() == 0) return;
getChildAt(getChildCount() - 1).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) {
v.removeOnLayoutChangeListener(this);
for (int i = 0; i < getChildCount(); i ++) {
LinearLayout.LayoutParams lp = new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(
LinearLayout.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT,
getChildAt(i).getMeasuredHeight());
getChildAt(i).setLayoutParams(lp);
}
}
});
}
}
Now in the xml file of your layout, use LinearLayoutButtonsHolder rather than LinearLayout. Do not forget to set the android:layout_width of each Button to wrap_content:
<github.yaa110.widget.LinearLayoutButtonsHolder
android:id="#+id/adapter"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_centerInParent="true"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<Button
android:text="Long text for test"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="48dp"
android:id="#+id/opt1"/>
<Button
android:text="2"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="48dp"
android:id="#+id/opt2" />
<Button
android:text="3"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="48dp"
android:id="#+id/opt3" />
<Button
android:text="4"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="48dp"
android:id="#+id/opt4" />
<Button
android:text="5"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="48dp"
android:id="#+id/opt5" />
</github.yaa110.widget.LinearLayoutButtonsHolder>
use linearlayout like this
<LinearLayout
android:layout_centerInParent="true"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_marginLeft="20dp"
android:layout_marginRight="20dp"
android:id="#+id/adapter">
I have done this using XML only (no code) - for two TextViews. But the same technique should work for arbitrary number of buttons as well.
Say we have two TextViews A and B.
Wrap each TextView in a LinearLayout (with only one element inside) - La and Lb.
Set each TextView (A,B) width to 'wrap_content', set background transparent
Set the LinearLayouts (La,Lb) widths to 'match_parent', set background to whatever color/shape you want
Wrap La and Lb inside another Vertical LinearLayout container L, set the width/height of L to be 'wrap_content', height to 'wrap_content'
set padding on each TextView's LinearLayout (La, Lb) to make it look good
set margins on (La, Lb) to create spacing
That should do it.
Note: Make sure the background color/shape for each TextView is set via its background of individual layout container and not on the TextView itself.
I know this question was asked 3 years ago - but I think I saw same/similar questions elsewhere for a solution that involves XML only. So hope this helps someone in the future.
It's the first time I post on this forum, hope it's gonna be fine :)
I'm developping an Android App for public transportation in my city.
Here is what I have
[ |short destination ||next departure| ]
[ |way too long dest...||next departure| ]
Here is what I want:
[ |short destination||next departure| ]
[ |way too long dest...||next departure| ]
Here is a more complete example: s28.postimg.org/5gejnvfd9/actual2.png
Weird coloured backgrounds are just here to easily identify layouts/textviews. You can also ignore the brown line (which is ok).
Basically, I want to have the destination [red background] which have a variable length, and on its right, I want the first departure time [green background]. Everything on one line.
I need to always have the first departure information fully displayed (nowrap). The destination could be wrapped with an ellipsis (...).
[Optional question, how to replace the ellipsis '...' with '.' ?]
Here is the best working code I have so far:
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<TextView
android:id="#+id/txtTitleDestination"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:layout_toLeftOf="#+id/txtTitleFirstDeparture"
android:background="#FF0000"
android:ellipsize="end"
android:maxLines="1"
android:padding="0dp"
android:scrollHorizontally="true"
android:textSize="18sp"
android:textStyle="bold" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/txtTitleFirstDeparture"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginLeft="0dp"
android:layout_marginRight="0dp"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:background="#00FF00"
android:ellipsize="none"
android:maxLines="1"
android:padding="0dp"
android:textSize="18sp"
android:textStyle="bold"
/>
</RelativeLayout>
I've tried TableLayout and LinearLayour instead of the RelativeLayout, but with no success :(
Any idea how I could do that?
Thanks in advance!

[SOLVED]
Just have to lightly modify the valbertos answer:
titleDestination.post(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
int widthTextViewDeparture = measureTextWidthTextView(titleFirstTime, pContext);
int widthTextViewDestination = titleDestination.getWidth();
int widthTextViewParent = rl_parent.getWidth();
if(widthTextViewDestination + widthTextViewDeparture > widthTextViewParent) {
titleDestination.setWidth(widthTextViewParent - widthTextViewDeparture);
titleDestination.setEllipsize(TruncateAt.END);
titleDestination.setHorizontallyScrolling(true);
}
}
});
Setting the Ellipsis only if necessary makes the text properly truncated.
Before:
Lingolsheim Thiergaten --> Lingolsheim... [1'23"] 21h23
With the modification:
Lingolsheim Thiergaten --> Lingolsheim Thi... [1'23"] 21h23
Thanks again :)
You don't need do it programmatically, ConstraintLayout is a magic!
Just use this code
app:layout_constraintHorizontal_bias="0" align view left
app:layout_constrainedWidth="true" to wrap left text
<?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"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:padding="8dp">
<TextView
android:id="#+id/leftText"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:ellipsize="end"
android:maxLines="1"
app:layout_constrainedWidth="true"
app:layout_constraintHorizontal_bias="0"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toStartOf="#id/rightText"
app:layout_constraintHorizontal_chainStyle="packed"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent"
tools:text="|short destination|" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/rightText"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintStart_toEndOf="#+id/leftText"
app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent"
tools:text="|next departure|" />
</androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout>
Here is result
I found a way to do it using Linear Layout, the trick is not to forget width="wrap_content" for the linearLayout, hope it can help.
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="horizontal">
<TextView
android:layout_width="0dip"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:ellipsize="end"
android:singleLine="true" />
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:singleLine="true" />
To do what you are asking for, you must adjust the width of the first view dynamically based on the text width of the second view.
//Code
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.test);
final TextView tv_1 = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.tv_1);
tv_1.post(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
View rl_parent = findViewById(R.id.rl_parent);
TextView tv_2 = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.tv_2);
int widthTextView2 = measureTextWidthTextView(tv_2);
if(tv_1.getWidth() + widthTextView2 > rl_parent.getWidth()) {
tv_1.setWidth(tv_1.getWidth() - widthTextView2);
}
}
});
}
private int measureTextWidthTextView(TextView textView) {
int widthMeasureSpec = View.MeasureSpec.makeMeasureSpec(getScreenWidth(), View.MeasureSpec.AT_MOST);
int heightMeasureSpec = View.MeasureSpec.makeMeasureSpec(0, View.MeasureSpec.UNSPECIFIED);
textView.measure(widthMeasureSpec, heightMeasureSpec);
return textView.getMeasuredWidth();
}
private int getScreenWidth() {
WindowManager wm = (WindowManager) getSystemService(WINDOW_SERVICE);
Display display = wm.getDefaultDisplay();
Point size = new Point();
display.getSize(size);
return size.x;
}
//Layout
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="300dp"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical">
<RelativeLayout
android:id="#+id/rl_parent"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="40dp"
android:background="#348D63">
<TextView
android:id="#+id/tv_1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"

android:maxLines="1"
android:paddingLeft="10dp"
android:paddingRight="10dp"
android:text="Elsau Elsau Elsau Elsau Elsau Elsau Elsau"
android:textStyle="bold" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/tv_2"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_toRightOf="#+id/tv_1"
android:gravity="center_vertical"
android:minWidth="50dp"
android:paddingLeft="10dp"
android:paddingRight="10dp"
android:text="[11:30 14:23]"
android:textStyle="bold" />
</RelativeLayout>
<!-- Rest of the layout -->
</LinearLayout>
Use android:maxLines="1" instead of android:singleLine="true" to get rid off the ugly dots -as I did in my example.
Also, I recommend you to use include for the "time" section, instead of repeating the TextViews twice. I’ve just done it like that to keep simple the example.
Maybe you should use a LinearLayout instead of RelativeLayout and use the layout_weight attribute.
<LinearLayout android:orientation="horizontal" ...>
<TextView android:id="#+id/txtTitleDestination" android:layout_width="wrap_content" ... />
<TextView android:id="#+id/txtTitleFirstDeparture" android:layout_width="0dp" android:layout_weight="1" ... />
</LinearLayout>
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" />

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"
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);
}
}
}
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.
I am trying to implement the layout below:
I guess GridLayout is suitable for my needs but after 2 hours of struggle I couldn't create even a similar layout.. The layout is resizing itself wrongly, it exceeds the screen of the phone and it also does not span the specified rows and columns.
Here I selected a button so you can see how it exceeds the boundaries:
and here is the associated xml code: https://gist.github.com/2834492
I have reached a similar layout with nested linearlayouts but it's not possible to properly resize it for different screen sizes.
UPDATE - approximate LinearLayout implementation:
The XML code: https://gist.github.com/cdoger/2835887
However, the problem is it does not resize itself properly here some screenshots with different screen configurations:
TLDR: Can someone show me a heterogeneous layout implementation with GridLayout like in the first picture?
The issue you are facing is due to inappropriate use of the GridLayout. The GridLayout is made to show its children in a grid and you are trying to override that without extending the GridLayout. While what you want may be accomplished in code (utilizing numcolumns and columnsize), it will not be useful for multiple screen sizes without a heck of a lot of code.
The only adequate solution that won't require a ton of hacking is judicious use of both LinearLayout and RelativeLayout. LinearLayout should not be used exclusively as it is made to drop items in a line (horizontally or vertically only). This becomes especially apparent when you try and do the bottom four buttons. While the buttons above may be done with LinearLayout with very little effort, RelativeLayout is what you need for the bottom four buttons.
Note:
RelativeLayout can be a little bit tricksy for those with little experience using them. Some pitfalls include: children overlapping, children moving off the screen, height and width rendering improperly applied. If you would like an example, let me know and I will edit my answer.
Final Note:
I'm all for utilizing the current framework objects in unique ways, and genuinely prefer to provide the requested solution. The solution, however, is not viable given the constraints of the question.
(Revision) Solution 1
After some careful thought last night, this may be accomplished with a pure LinearLayout. While I do not like this solution, it should be multi-screen friendly and requires no tooling around from me. Caution should be used with too many LinearLayouts, as according to Google's developers, it can result in slow loading UIs due to the layout_weight property. A second solution utilizing RelativeLayout will be provided when I return home. Now Tested This provides the desired layout parameters on all screen-sizes and orientations.

Solution 1 Explanation
The key to LinearLayouts is to define your imperatives as separate Layouts and nest the others in them. As you apply constraints to more dimensions, more LinearLayouts must be added to encapsulate the others. For yours, it was crucial to have two more parents in order to maintain the proportion. A great indicator of when you should add another level is when you have to utilize layout_weight using anything other than an integer value. It simply becomes to hard to calculate properly. From there it was relatively simple to break it into columns.
Solution 2 (Failed)
While I was able to achieve desirable results utilizing RelativeLayout and "struts", I could only do so with layouts that were multiples of 2 buttons in height. Such a trick would be awesome as the levels of layout are greatly reduced, so I will work on a pure XML solution and post the answer here if and when I achieve it. In the meantime, the LinearLayout above should suit your needs perfectly.
I read this thread and realised that I wanted a flatter solution than those with linear layout. After some research I ended up making my own layout. It is inspired by a GridLayout but differs a bit.
Please note that if you are going to copy-paste the code you'll need to change package names in some places.
This layout has 4 layout parameters that children use to position themselves.These are layout_left, layout_top, layout_right, layout_bottom. The ICGridLayout itself has two attributes: layout_spacing and columns.
Columns tells the layout how many columns you want it to contain. It will then calculate the size of a cell with the same height as width. Which will be the layouts width/columns.
The spacing is the amount of space you want between each child.
The layout_left|top|right|bottom attributes are the coordinates for each side. The layout does no calculations in order to avoid collision or anything. It just puts the children where they want to be.
If you'd like to have smaller squares you just have to increase the columns attribute.
Keep in mind that this is a quick prototype, I will continue working on it and when I feel that it's ready I'll upload it to Github and put a comment here.
All of my code below should produce the following result:

Added the call to measure for the children, forgot that the first time around.

As many have said, nested linear layouts seem the only way to win here. Some of the solutions have not used the layout parameters in the most flexible manner. Code below seeks to do that, and in a way that's robust with aspect ratio changes. Details are in the comments.

So here is the solution I promised after one year =)
It basically uses the ViewTreeObserver to get the dimensions of the parent layout and create custom views accordingly. Since this code is one year old ViewTreeObserver might not be the best way to get the dimensions dynamically.
You can find the full source code here:
https://github.com/cdoger/Android_layout
I divided the screen into 8 equal widths and 6 equal heights. Here is a snapshot of how I laid out the views:
final RelativeLayout mainLayout = (RelativeLayout) findViewById(R.id.main_layout);
ViewTreeObserver vto = mainLayout.getViewTreeObserver();
vto.addOnGlobalLayoutListener(new OnGlobalLayoutListener() {
#Override
public void onGlobalLayout() {
final int oneUnitWidth = mainLayout.getMeasuredWidth() / 8;
final int oneUnitHeight = mainLayout.getMeasuredHeight() / 6;
/**
* 1
***************************************************************/
final RelativeLayout.LayoutParams otelParams = new RelativeLayout.LayoutParams(
oneUnitWidth * 4, oneUnitHeight);
otelParams.addRule(RelativeLayout.ALIGN_PARENT_TOP);
otelParams.addRule(RelativeLayout.ALIGN_PARENT_LEFT);
// otelParams.setMargins(0, 0, 2, 0);
View1.setLayoutParams(otelParams);
/***************************************************************/
/**
* 2
***************************************************************/
final RelativeLayout.LayoutParams otherParams = new RelativeLayout.LayoutParams(
oneUnitWidth * 4, oneUnitHeight);
otherParams.addRule(RelativeLayout.ALIGN_PARENT_TOP);
otherParams.addRule(RelativeLayout.RIGHT_OF, View1.getId());
otherParams.setMargins(2, 0, 0, 0);
View2.setLayoutParams(otherParams);
/***************************************************************/
//... goes on like this
