I'm wondering how can I split single line text into few lines. I need it for game. I want to make it in canvas. It will be notification popup, but sometimes text is too long (I draw text canvas.drawText()), and I need to split it and draw in few lines in rows. Anyone knows a good solution? I saw methods mPaint.measureText() or TextUtils . split () , but it isn't so good in my case. Is there other method?

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a long text and I want it to be displayed with a TextView. The text I have is much longer than the available space. However I don't want to use scrolling, but ViewFlipper to flip to the next page. How can I retrieve the lines from the first TextView that are not shown because the view is to short so that I can paste them into the next TextView?
I simply have to use a custom View with a StaticLayout like this:
public ReaderColumView(Context context, Typeface typeface, String cText) { super(context);
Display display = ((WindowManager)
context.getSystemService(Context.WINDOW_SERVICE)).getDefaultDisplay();
dWidth = display.getWidth(); dHeight = display.getHeight();
contentText = cText; tp = new TextPaint();
tp.setTypeface(typeface); tp.setTextSize(25);
tp.setColor(Color.BLACK); tp.setAntiAlias(true);
StaticLayout measureLayout = new StaticLayout(contentText, tp, 440, Alignment.ALIGN_NORMAL, 1, 2, true);
Boolean reachedEndOfScreen = false;
int line = 0; while (!reachedEndOfScreen) {
if (measureLayout.getLineBottom(line) > dHeight-30) { reachedEndOfScreen = true;
fittedText = contentText.substring(0, measureLayout.getLineEnd(line-1));
setLeftoverText(contentText.substring(measureLayout.getLineEnd(line-1)));
} line++;
} } protected void onDraw(Canvas canvas) { super.onDraw(canvas);
StaticLayout textLayout = new StaticLayout(fittedText, tp, 440, Alignment.ALIGN_NORMAL, 1, 2, true);
canvas.translate(20,20); textLayout.draw(canvas);
}
Thats not optimized yet but you get the point.
I'm trying to create an app that allows the user to read a long text and horizontally swipe to change pages pretty much like the Kindle app. I understand that I can implement the horizontal swipe function using the viewpager and pageradapater classes, however I'm not sure how to split the long text over the different pages. At the moment I think I need to take the text and split it programatically before passing it on the the pageradapter. Would this be the best way or is there some easier way using the pageradapater class itself.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have an Android TextView displaying some text, and it's multi-line. However, in the text, I sometimes have domain names; how can I stop the TextView from splitting the lines up on the periods in them?
Is there a Unicode non-breaking-period, for example?
I am wondering if there is a way to draw an image, or edit simple lines in a text box. The entire screen is a textView/ect and i would like to be able to write a sentence then draw an image and write again. By draw i think i would use the Canvas, so basically is there a way to include a canvas in a text view?
Evernote does do this, but to edit an image/draw you need to open another app "Skitch", my goal is to try and do this without any extra apps.
For example:
Hello
(canvas/editable graphical items)
World

I am creating a button widget with icon and text. Single word text is getting divided into two lines. There is enough room on the screen for the button widget to grow. But it still wraps the text to next line. How do I force it to be single line ? This is how I setup th button widget. <Button android:id="@+id/delete" android:text=" @string/delete" android: drawableTop="@drawable/ic_menu_post_delete" style="@style/ OnScreenActionIcon" />
View 2 Replies View Relatedwhen I send text messages which are longer than one line but less than 100 characters, sometimes the other person texts back that all they see is an empty box. At first I thought it was the other persons phone but several people are telling me the same thing. This does not always happen, but often. One liners seem to have no problems. I called Rogers tech support and they give me the same aswers all the time for different problems.
1. reset the phone to factory settings(which I already did, and same thing happened)
2. If you would like we can send a replacement phone since the problem seems to be hardware related.( I doubt this, since I can send texts and other person receives them, except the times they receive an empty box)

View 11 Replies View RelatedI am trying to create a simple android app that loads a text file from the internet and displays in a scrollable view. I got the text file to load just fine but I cant seem to figure out how to get it to skip lines using the traditional "/n"
Here is my code:
Code:
package com.brooksytech.ykyacw;
import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.InputStreamReader;
import java.net.MalformedURLException;
import java.net.URL;
[Code] .......
Supposedly this code is similar to what I want to do but I dont know how to implement it correctly:
Code:
public static String readRawTextFile(Context ctx, int resId)
{
InputStream inputStream = ctx.getResources().openRawResource(resId);
InputStreamReader inputreader = new InputStreamReader(inputStream);
BufferedReader buffreader = new BufferedReader(inputreader);
[Code] .....
All I want it to do is skip a line when it sees /n
I have a text file in my res/raw directory. I want to read the file line by line, but FileReader and BufferedReader fail, because of Android's security restriction. How else can I do it?
