View 1 RepliesHow do you get the text of a TextView to be Justified (with text flush on the left- and right- hand sides)?
I found a possible solution here, but it does not work (even if you change vertical-center to center_vertical, etc).
Can you please tell me how can I place an background image to a the left upper corner of TextView in android? I would like the image not to be scaled by android.
I have tried
Resources res = getResources();
setCompoundDrawables(res.getDrawable(R.drawable.icon48x48_1), null, null, null);
Nothing is shown.
And I have tried
setBackground(R.drawable.icon48x48_1);
But it stretches the image.

How to set the color of texts which are in the same textview to be different? I'm now developing a simple IM, so I need to show the message. But I want to make the color of text which I receive to be different from that myself edit.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a layout that looks something like this:
[TextView 1] [TextView 2]
[ TextView 2 spill-over ]
Essentially, I need the contents of TextView 2 to wrap to the next line, but start where TextView 1 starts. I was thinking that if I knew how much text would fit into TextView 2 before it runs out of space on line one, I could take the rest of the text and put it in another TextView below the first two. So I need to measure how much text will fit into a TextView (which can be tricky because as far as I can tell, Android will try to break the text in a TextView at a good location so that it won't break a word in the middle if it can be avoided) or I need a new idea on how to lay this out.
Can any one tell me whats going wrong with the text, text exceeds then one line not getting wrap to next line going beyond the screen.
Following is the code...

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have an XMl file like below which I will use to set background for Textview:
row.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shape="rectangle">
The above Xml I will set as background for TextView in main.xml as below:
main.xml
<TextView
android:id="@+id/rowtext3"
android:text="Availablity"
android:layout_height="25px"
android:layout_width="60px"
android:textSize="10px"
android:textStyle="bold"
android:textColor="@color/black"
android:gravity="center"
android:background="@drawable/row"/>
But I want this to do from code rather than Xml.I have done everything that I have done in Xml like font,width,Height,font dynamically through code , but not able to set Background that I mentioned in Xml file . How can we set content of Xml file as background to textview similar to how we set background as XML in main.xml.
In the code I have done like this:
t1=new TextView(this);
t1.setText(ed1.getText());
t1.setHeight(25);
t1.setWidth(60);
t1.setTextSize(10);
But I didn't find how to set background i.e. how to set XML content as background?
I'm not referring to textInput, either. I mean that once you have static text in a TextView (populated from a Database call to user inputted data (that may not be Capitalized)), how can I make sure they are capitalized?
View 1 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to adjust the spacing between characters in an Android TextView? I believe this is typically called "kerning".
I'm aware of the android:textScaleX attribute, but that compresses the characters along with the spacing.
I got this second messaging icon that appears in the top left when I get a text. Its relentless and can only be cleared by dropping down the notification window and clicking on 'clear'. It looks like a small envelope but not very good graphically. I originally thought it was default app notification but its not. I'm rooted and have a custom rom installed. Someone please tell me how to stop it, I can't take it anymore.
View 13 Replies View RelatedI 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.

How do you format a textview?:Let say I have 4 float variables
x input from user
y input from user
z input from user
a output from program
a = ((x *y) / z);
a = a * 1000;
this works but is not formatted:
TextView.setText(String,valueOf(a));
so if x = 1, y = 2, and z = 12;
a will = 166.666667
I want to be able to format 'a';I want to be able to format 'TextView.setText(String,valueOf(a)); so 'a' will be displayed as 166.66 or 166.67 as the case may be in a TextView. or even 166.667 .
