如何使用自定义字体在TextView中容纳多行文本？

Question

I'm using API 10 .

I am stuck with this for days. I searched stackoverflow and tried a ton of classes.

I wanted to fit a multiline text inside my TextView bounds with the default font. I used the class below and it worked wonders, and not only one one device, but on all devices. Exactly the same. The code is this, I found it in stackoverflow:

/**
 * This class builds a new android Widget named AutoFitText which can be used instead of a TextView
 * to have the text font size in it automatically fit to match the screen width. Credits go largely
 * to Dunni, gjpc, gregm and speedplane from Stackoverflow, method has been (style-) optimized and
 * rewritten to match android coding standards and our MBC. This version upgrades the original
 * "AutoFitTextView" to now also be adaptable to height and to accept the different TextView types
 * (Button, TextClock etc.)

        mSingleLine = singleLine;
        super.setSingleLine(singleLine);
    }
}

The text shrunk as needed so that it fit the TextView bounds.

But now I want to use a custom font. I imported my custom font and everything went wrong. As you can see in the image below it doesn't fit anymore. The text doesn't shrink to fit.

So, does anyone have an idea how to handle this? Have you faced a similar problem with custom fonts?

Please someone with enough reputation, enable my image.

Answer 1

You need also to set the current fontface to the testTextView. This solved my problem.

private void refitText(String text, int targetFieldWidth, int targetFieldHeight) {

        //
        // Bla bla bla codes
        //

        //
        // THIS IS THE FIX
        // Put the current typeface of textview to the test-textview
        mTestView.setTypeface(getTypeface());

        // Initialize the dummy with some params (that are largely ignored anyway, but this is
        // mandatory to not get a NullPointerException)
        mTestView.setLayoutParams(new LayoutParams(targetFieldWidth, targetFieldHeight));

        // maxWidth is crucial! Otherwise the text would never line wrap but blow up the width
        mTestView.setMaxWidth(targetFieldWidth);

        if (mSingleLine) {
