Android TextView字幕

Question

I'd like to shorten the text out if it's too long and add "..." at end. This is the example where I would like to clip the text:

I've tried multiple variations of code (TruncateAt.END, .setLines(4), ...) but I think this should work:

textv.setMaxLines(4);
textv.setEllipsize(TruncateAt.MARQUEE);

But the result is this:

What is wrong?

Answer 1

You can get the substring of the string, and use that as the max length, and add the ... at the end.

int MAX_LENGTH=40;
if(inString.length > MAX_LENGTH)
    View.setText(inString.subString(0,MAX_LENGTH) + "...";

I hope this will help you out...
