TextView没有包装到多行

Question

I have a TextView inside a LinearLayout which displays only a part of its text without wrapping to a newline and cannot understand why. It doesn't even show the ellipsis somewhere.

The TextView

    <TextView
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:text="@string/import_progress_text"
        android:singleLine="false"
        android:maxLines="4"
        android:ellipsize="end"
        style="@style/TxtDefault" />

i also tried layout_weight=0 along with layout_height=0 but still no luck. All the siblings inside the LinearLayout have layout_height=wrap_content set.

EDIT

Okay apparently it works when a fixed width is set, but neither with fill_parent nor with match_parent . Is this the expected behaviour?

Per Request the whole layout
Note that inside the FrameLayout is another invisible one, which is rather long

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<FrameLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical"
style="@style/ContentBody"
>
<LinearLayout
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:orientation="vertical"
    android:id="@+id/progress"
    android:layout_gravity="center">

    <TextView
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:text="@string/import_progress_title"
        style="@style/TxtTitle" />
    <TextView
        android:layout_width="410dp"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:text="@string/import_progress_text"
        android:singleLine="false"
        android:maxLines="4"
        android:ellipsize="end"
        style="@style/TxtDefault" />

    <ProgressBar
        style="?android:attr/progressBarStyleHorizontal"
        android:layout_width="410dp"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:id="@+id/progress_bar_view"
        android:progress="2"/>

    <TextView
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:text="@string/import_progress_start"
        android:id="@+id/progress_text_view"
        style="@style/TxtSecondary" />

</LinearLayout>
</FrameLayout>

Answer 1

The code snippet is wrapping to multiline perfectly. There might be some problem with the IDE, which is not previewing properly. Test on a real device.

Answer 2

if you want to always show text in n lines, just add android:lines="n" , or if it's not work, try to use for your TextView -> android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceLarge"

hope that will help.
