Question

I put a text from a database, but in the field shows only two lines and the rest of the text is cut off and put three dots.

file.xml

<ScrollView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
  android:id="@+id/svRut"
  android:layout_width="match_parent"
  android:layout_height="fill_parent"
  android:layout_gravity="right" >

 <LinearLayout
   android:id="@+id/llRut"
   android:layout_width="match_parent"
   android:layout_height="wrap_content"
   android:gravity="center_horizontal"
   android:orientation="vertical"
   android:padding="5dp" >

 <TextView
    android:id="@+id/textDescript"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:ellipsize="end"
    android:text="@string/mus_textdes" />
</LinearLayout> 
</ScrollView>

File.java

...
textDescript.setText(onExes.getString(onExes.getColumnIndex("exes_desc")));
...

Answer 1

Why does TextView not expand and cut the text?

=> Just because you have included android:ellipsize="end", remove it if you don’t want that ending dots.
