This project provides a Textview-like control which allows you to set max number of lines to wrap an input string, then ellipsizes the last line if there's not enough room to handle the entire input string.
As you know, the Android UI TextView also allow we to set MaxLines and EllipsizeMode, but we can't find out how to know if TextView ellipsized, we want to know it because we can do something for it such as show an expand/collapse Button by the ellipsize state, that was why we wrote this widget.
For more Detail, take a look at this Article.
in layout file, define it:
<LinearLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:vincestyling="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto">
<com.vincestyling.android.ui.EllipsizeEndTextView
android:id="@+id/txvEllipsize"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
vincestyling:textSize="15sp"
vincestyling:textColor="#2b2b2b"
vincestyling:maxLines="4"
vincestyling:lineSpacing="10dp"/>
</LinearLayout>in Activity, just set Text to the widget:
mTxvEllipsize.setText(getString(R.string.ellipsize_txt_chn));Copyright 2013 Vince Styling
