Android: Line-limited textview with "..." to show that there is more content -
i displaying long (random) text in textview. want show 3 lines in textview , show dots (...) if there more content. know can limit lines of textview minlines , maxlines, don't know add dots in string.
e.g. textview could/should like
"this random text short 1 , more here..." "this 1 has loooooooooooooooong string ..."
you don't need know add dots, textview can you. checkout android:ellipsize=end
. note ellipsize's algorithm doesn't work reliably in older android versions. there might discrepancies between exact behavior between 2.3, 3 , 4+. example know not show more 2 lines in 2.3
