Question

I want to rotate TextView but I can’t get proper output. I am getting textView with missing some text

In Layout

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical" android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:layout_marginTop = "50dip">

<TextView android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:gravity="bottom"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:id="@+id/text"
    android:text="Shreeji \n Nath" />

</RelativeLayout> 

In Animation

   <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
   <rotate xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
        android:fromDegrees="40" android:toDegrees="-90" android:pivotX="40%"
        android:duration="0">
   </rotate>

Java file

import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.animation.AnimationUtils;
import android.view.animation.RotateAnimation;
import android.widget.TextView;

public class VDemo extends Activity {
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.main);

    TextView tv = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.text);
    RotateAnimation ranim = (RotateAnimation)AnimationUtils.loadAnimation(this,R.anim.myanim);
    ranim.setFillAfter(true); 
    tv.setAnimation(ranim);

  }
}

Change the main.xml to :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent">
    <TextView android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:text="TextView" android:layout_marginTop="50dip"
        android:layout_marginLeft="50dip" android:id="@+id/text1"></TextView>

</RelativeLayout>
