Android TableLayout宽度问题

Question

I'm using TableLayout to display data. Text of the TextViews of the right column will be set when activity calls onCreate().

Now, as you can see in the following image that my address text can be long and it should be wrapped. So I set android:layout_width="wrap_content" . but it still take a width of screen size to wrap data. How can I overcome from this issue?

My xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<TableLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent"
    android:padding="5px">
    <TableRow>
        <TextView android:text="Job#"
            android:paddingRight="5px" />
        <TextView android:id="@+id/DetailJobNo" />
    </TableRow>
    <TableRow>
        <TextView android:text="Address"
            android:paddingRight="5px" />
        <TextView android:id="@+id/DetailAddress"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:text="Address Address Address Address Address Address Address Address "/>
    </TableRow>
</TableLayout>

Answer 1

向TableLayout添加android:shrinkColumns="1"解决了我的问题。

Answer 2

你可以尝试设置setHorizo​​ntallyScrolling到DetailAdress TextView的假？

@Vikas, its good that you have solved your problem.

BUt I would still recommend to use HorizontalScrollView for security purposes. If at all few chars are not visible, then horizontal scrollbar will help to manage that. XML text :

<HorizontalScrollView android:layout_width="fill_parent" 
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_marginTop="10dp" android:layout_marginBottom="10dp" >

<TableLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"   
android:layout_width="fill_parent"   
android:layout_height="fill_parent"   
android:padding="5px">   
  ......
  ......
  ADD YOUR ROWS 
 </TableLayout>       
</HorizontalScrollView>

Its always better to take care of the unexpected.
