How to prevent a TextView resize the parent LinearLayout - Android
Question
I have a LinearLayout that covers the entire width of the screen, inside I have a random number of TextView (7 in this example). I want all the TextView are the same size, so I put the attribute android:layout_weight="1" in each.
When there is not text in the TextView everything works fine:
but when I add the text corresponding to each TextView , the size of Textview change, not keep the weight and resize the LinearLayout
This is only part of the design of my Activity, so I recreated it in a new xml to see if the error persists. And I have noticed that this only happens when the LinearLayout is inside of a HorizontalScrollView
When it is not, I get the expected result:
My xml:
<HorizontalScrollView
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:fillViewport="true">
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:orientation="horizontal">
<TextView
android:singleLine="true"
android:text="LONG TEXT"
android:layout_marginBottom="1dp"
