A TextView that shows the right text based on its size!
Add the following line in the dependencies section of your build.gradle file:
implementation 'com.alexfacciorusso.shorteningtextview:shorteningtextview:0.1.0'
Use the com.alexfacciorusso.shorteningtextview.ShorteningTextView view into your layouts.
<com.alexfacciorusso.shorteningtextview.ShorteningTextView
android:id="@+id/shorteningTextView"
app:stv_texts="@array/example_strings"
... />
where @array/exampe_strings is an array of strings defined as a resource.
If you want to set the texts in a programmatic way (we all love setting views programmatically,
don't we?), a property texts (Kotlin) or setTexts/getTexts (Java) is available!
val sampleStrings = resources.getStringArray(R.array.example_strings)
// Notice the `.toList()` since `texts` is a List<String> but Resources.getStringArray
// returns, of course, an array.
shorteningTextView.texts = sampleStrings.toList()
// Or also:
shorteningTextView.texts = listOf("My very long string", "My string") final String[] sampleTexts = getResources().getStringArray(R.array.example_strings);
// Notice the `Arrays.asList` since `texts` is a List<String> but Resources.getStringArray
// returns, of course, an array.
shorteningTextView.setTexts(Arrays.asList(sampleTexts));
