Android single line TextView without the dots

Question

Is it possible to have a single line TextView that cuts off at the nearest pixel and does not add three dots?

Solution 1

<TextView
    android:id="@+id/text_ivew"
    style="@style/Text.Title"
    singleLine="false"
    android:ellipsize="end"
    android:lines="1"
    android:text="text"></TextView>

Solution 2

You should just be able to set the android:ellipsize property to false on your TextView in xml.

according to Eclipse's documentation singleLine is "* Deprecated: This attribute is deprecated and is replaced by the textMultiLine flag in the inputType attribute. Use caution when altering existing layouts, as the default value...." i used it without and works fine on android 2.1 :)

inputType on TextView? Isn't that or EditText?

Didn't work with me, text still shows ellipsis (left cell pushes right cell to the right so text in right cell shows ellipses).

or android:ellipsize="none" in XML.

setting android:ellipsize="none" in XML is enough.
