I am building an Android Application and I am displaying information in a CustomListView. I already have the whole thing working, from the ListView layout and adapter, as well as the custom objects needed.
My customListView layout file has 6 textViews inside as such:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:padding="5dp">
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:textSize="12dp"
android:text="Large Text"
android:id="@+id/id1"
android:gravity="center_vertical|center_horizontal"
android:layout_marginLeft="2pt"/>
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:textSize="15dp"
android:text="Large Text"
android:id="@+id/id2"
android:gravity="center_vertical|center_horizontal"
android:layout_marginLeft="2pt"
android:textStyle="bold"/>
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:textSize="15dp"
android:text="Large Text"
android:id="@+id/id3"
android:gravity="center_vertical|center_horizontal"
android:layout_marginLeft="2pt"/>
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:textSize="15dp"
android:text="Large Text"
android:id="@+id/id4"
android:gravity="center_vertical|center_horizontal"
android:layout_marginLeft="2pt"/>
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textSize="15dp"
android:text="Large Text"
android:id="@+id/id5"
android:gravity="center_vertical|center_horizontal"
android:layout_marginLeft="2pt"/>
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:textSize="15dp"
android:text="Large Text"
android:id="@+id/id6"
android:gravity="center_vertical|center_horizontal"
android:layout_marginLeft="2pt"/>
</LinearLayout>
However, what happens is if one of those fields have lengthy input, say for example ids3-4, the textViews id5 and id6 tends to be "cut off" because they are out of screen bounds already.
I want to be change the layout in such a way that whenever any textViews goes out of the screen, they just go to the next line.
How can I do this?
ApmeM's FlowLayout does exactly what you're describing.
