textview overflowing out of the screen

Question

i have this problem where i create ax number of textview in my layout to store 1 character in each text view.

however when the text gets too long, the text would not go to the next line and it will get overflowed out of the screen

is there anyway for me to keep the textviews in 1 screen?

 LinearLayout linearLayout = new LinearLayout(this);
        linearLayout.setLayoutParams(new LayoutParams(LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT, LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT));
        TextView[] tv = new TextView[counter];
        float textSize = 65;

        for (int i = 0; i < counter; i++)
        {
                tv[i] = new TextView(this);
                tv[i].setLayoutParams(new LayoutParams(LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT)); 
                tv[i].setTextSize(textSize);
                tv[i].setText(""+singleText[i]);
                linearLayout.addView(tv[i]); 
        }
        setContentView(linearLayout);

Answer 1

I think you should try using this TextView.setSingleLine(false)

Then you will not have the issue of text overflow.
