Question

Is there any codes which won’t overlap the textviews? Because if my name is long, it will overlap the Textview, Name:

Name: Abcdefghijk

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

    <RelativeLayout android:id="@+id/relativeLayout1"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content">

        <TextView android:layout_width="fill_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:text="Name:"
            android:textSize="20px" />

        <TextView android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:id="@+id/txtName"
            android:layout_alignParentRight="true" android:textSize="20px"></TextView>
    </RelativeLayout>
</LinearLayout>

Try this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout
  android:id="@+id/relativeLayout1"
  android:layout_width="fill_parent"
  android:layout_height="wrap_content"
>

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/lblName"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:text="Name:"
        android:textSize="20px"
    />

    <TextView
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:id="@+id/txtName"
        android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
        android:layout_toRightOf="@id/lblName"
        android:textSize="20px"
        android:ellipsize="marquee"
    />
</RelativeLayout>

android:ellipsize=”marquee” cuts the text to the available space
