I have a RecyclerView
which consists of CardView
s that have a TextView
and an ImageView
, among some other layouts.
The problem is, in some screen resolutions the TextView
gets cut off or shoved to the next line, which I don't want.
In other resolutions, the TextView
has plenty of room.
Small Resolutions:
High Resolutions:
How do I organize the layout so that there is enough room for the TextView
, and the ImageView
will be sized accordingly?
This is my xml for the RecyclerView
items:
<android.support.v7.widget.CardView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:cardview="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:id="@+id/zmanCard"

android:layout_height="50dp"
android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal"
android:gravity="center_horizontal"
cardview:cardUseCompatPadding="false"
cardview:cardPreventCornerOverlap="false"
cardview:cardCornerRadius="4dp"
cardview:cardElevation="2dp">

<ProgressBar
android:id="@+id/zmanProgressBar"
android:layout_width="24dp"

To use preset sizes to set up the autosizing of TextView in XML, use the android namespace and set the following attributes: Set the autoSizeText attribute to either none or uniform. none is a default value and uniform lets TextView scale uniformly on horizontal and vertical axes.
setTextSize(float size) method to set the size of text. textView.
android:gravity="center" for text center in TextView. android:gravity="center_horizontal" inner text if you want horizontally centered. android:gravity="center_vertical" inner text if you want vertically centered. android:layout_centerInParent="true" if you want TextView in center position of parent view.
Try this. Works 100%.
AutoResizeTextView or sdp unit can help you.
SDP - a scalable size unit
An android SDK that provides a new size unit - sdp (scalable dp). This size unit scales with the screen size. It can help Android developers with supporting multiple screens.
for text views please refer to ssp which is based on the sp size unit for texts.

Auto Scale TextView Text to Fit within Bounds
And if you want support different layout designs for different screen:
res/layout/my_layout.xml // layout for normal screen size ("default")
res/layout-small/my_layout.xml // layout for small screen size
res/layout-large/my_layout.xml // layout for large screen size
res/layout-xlarge/my_layout.xml // layout for extra large screen size
res/layout-xlarge-land/my_layout.xml // layout for extra large in landscape orientation
Fore more information look here
A TextView that automatically resizes text to fit perfectly within its bounds.
Usage:
dependencies {
compile 'me.grantland:autofittextview:0.2.+'
}
Enable any View extending TextView in code:
AutofitHelper.create(textView);
Enable any View extending TextView in XML:
<me.grantland.widget.AutofitLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
>
<Button
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:singleLine="true"
/>
</me.grantland.widget.AutofitLayout>
Use the built in Widget in code or XML:
<RootElement
xmlns:autofit="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
...
<me.grantland.widget.AutofitTextView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:singleLine="true"
android:maxLines="2"
android:textSize="40sp"
autofit:minTextSize="16sp"
/>
