EllipsizeTextView
The EllipsizeTextView offers a lot of flexibility when it comes to causing words in the text that are longer than the view is wide to be omitted instead of broken in the middle.
The EllipsizeTextView is powerful and flexible. You do not need to worry about the emoji
truncated cause garbled, and you also do not need to worry about the text be affected by the class CharacterStyle
and its subclass truncated cause unexpected result.
The EllipsizeTextView extends TextView, it supports multiple lines omit redundant characters, but the method {
@link EllipsizeTextView#setMaxLines(int)
}
will be always needed to call. besides, you can call the method {
@link EllipsizeTextView#setEllipsizeText(CharSequence, int)
}
to custom the content, style, and index(in the reverse order) of the ellipsis.

Usage
Normal Mode
You can specify the attributes from a layout XML like:
<com.dinuscxj.ellipsize.EllipsizeTextView
android:id="@+id/tv_ellipsize3"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textSize="16sp"
android:layout_marginTop="16dp"
app:ellipsize_index="8"
app:ellipsize_text="..."
android:maxLines="2" />
Or from code like:
mEllipsizeText.setMaxLines(2);
mEllipsizeText.setEllipsizeText(ellipsizeText, 8);
mEllipsizeText.setText(R.string.long_text);
Auto Mode
the diff from Normal Mode is that you should set the attribute android:layout_height
to a accurate value and the attribute android:maxLines
is optional.
<com.dinuscxj.ellipsize.EllipsizeTextView
android:id="@+id/tv_ellipsize3"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="50dp"
android:textSize="16sp"
android:layout_marginTop="16dp"
app:ellipsize_index="8"
app:ellipsize_text="..." />
Or from code like:
mEllipsizeText.getLayoutParams().height = 50dp;
mEllipsizeText.setEllipsizeText(ellipsizeText, 8);
mEllipsizeText.setText(R.string.long_text);
