Why multiline TextView and two single line TextView's height is different?

Question

I want to synchronize these views

1. Two TextView

2. One TextView with two lines

Two TextView's height is 73 * 2 = 146

But, One TextView is 155.

I want to show same layout for these views.

Why these views are different?

Here is my code

    <TextView
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:bufferType="spannable"
        android:ellipsize="end"
        android:lineSpacingExtra="5.5dp"
        android:textColor="@color/grey900"
        android:textSize="15.5sp" />

Answer 1

Because it includes some situation,

1. different padding
2. different margin
3. different lines-pacing

as above will make different total height with them.

In case 1 You use two TextView, total height depends on

textHeight*2 + padding-bottom*2 + padding-top*2 + margin-between-them

---

In case 2 You use single multiline TextView, total height depends on

textHeight*2 + padding-bottom + paddingTop + line-spacing

You can see that variables make different height are padding、margin、line-spacing
