Android : How To Get A TextView To Span Length Of Screen

Jan 18, 2010

I've a textview I want to span almost the length of the screen, then 2 buttons at the bottom.

Right now I'm using a relative layout with a textview and two buttons and I can almost get it the way I want but the only thing is the textview isn't as long as I want it. I want it to be as long as necessary for whatever handset is using it. So a constant pixel amount is out.

Android :: Fill_parent With ListView Cells - Single TextView Span One To Two Lines

Feb 12, 2009

I am having this issue where I am trying to have a single TextView span one to two lines, fill the cell completely (so you can also click edges of the cell and it will trigger) and center-align.

This is the layout for the cell:

CODE:...

However cells seems to be filled correctly ONLY if it happens to wrap around and end up spanning two lines of text. It shows center-aligned and you can click anywhere in the cell to trigger the click. The cells that do not span multiple lines of text are left-aligned and trigger (highlight) only if you click where the text is. There is a "numb" area which does not react to clicks inside the cell if the text is short.

Android :: Top Of Image Span Images Getting Cut Off?

Dec 14, 2009

I'm trying to use ImageSpan to add icons to a textview (small graphics, symbols like emoticons, not much taller than normal letters) and whenever I have icons on the top line of text they're getting chopped off at the top. Icons on other lines are fine.It's like the textview, when calculating its size, doesn't take into account the icon size. Any idea how to get it to calculate the size correctly, so the top of the icons can be displayed? (sorry for the repost - I tried posting this a couple of weeks ago, but got no replies)

Android : Can I Add A Click Event To A Text Span?

Dec 25, 2009

I have a large text view that I am styling with a SpannableStringBuilder. I want to be able to assign custom click event handlers to certain spans of text. For example, if I click a superscript character I want it to pop up a toast with some information about what the superscript references. So far I have found linkify which helps to make regular expression type of things like emails and phone numbers launch appropriate activities. What I want to be able to do is define a span and its styling and assign a click handler to it. I haven't found anything built in that supports this kind of functionality and so I'm asking for anyone with a fresh idea of how to do this.

Android :: Arranging TextView Objects On Screen

Jul 28, 2010

I'm using textview objects to hold labels such as Score, Level etc on my game screen but they don't seem to be displayed where I want them to be. I understand about view hierarchies (parents, children) and am using the gravity tags in the XML layout file but it doesn't seem to have any effect. Could someone just quickly provide a guide to positioning a textview object on the screen, and also linking it in the code so that its contents can be pro grammatically controlled (I believe this would by done via =(TextView) findViewById(r.id.resourcename))? Code...

Android : Specify MaxWidth Of A TextView As Percentage Of Screen Width?

Oct 15, 2009

I noticed that it is not possible to specify a percentage value for maxWidth.

What is the best way around this?

For example, in the layout xml, is it possible to get a handle on the screen width and apply some kind of arithmetic to it (e.g. maxWidth="(60 * @screenWidth) / 100px")

Also would this approach mean the maxWidth would be automatically recalculated on orientation changes?

Android :: TextView / Screen View Changes / Text Size Remains Same

Nov 16, 2010

I am developing an application in which the layout is independent of screen resolution.
Now my problem is that in TextView the textview layout does change itself when the resolution of screen changes but the size of text remain same.I want that when the resolution is high, according to that the text size should also adjust itself(i.e. text size should be changed).And similarly when resolution is low the text size should also shrink.But here when i reduce Y-AXIS to an extent the text vanishes.I will really appreciate any answer.

Android :: Child TextView In ScrollView With Large Amount Of Text Pushes Other Views Off The Screen

May 6, 2009

I am trying to create an activity layout that has a top level vertical linear layout like so:

CODE:................

This works ok as long as the wordDefinition text isn't very long. But, when I set the text to something very long, it pushes the back button off the bottom of the screen. Why? Isn't the ScrollView supposed to scroll the text in the child TextView?

I've tried playing with weights (e.g., giving the top text view a weight of .2, the scroll view a weight of .7 and the button a weight of .1, but to no avail.

Android :: Android RelativeLayout - Trying To Vertically Center A TextView When The TextView Below Has No Text

Jul 14, 2010

I have a ListView that contains an Image on the left of two vertically-oriented TextViews using a RelativeLayout. When both TextViews have text it looks fine. Sometimes the TextView on the bottom won't have any text, and the problem is that the entire layout is several pixels above where it should be because it still reserves that space for text when there isn't any making the entire list have annoying blank gaps. I remember seeing an example of where someone made the layout not reserve the space, but I can't remember how he did it.
