Android: Last line of textview cut off

Question

I have a horizontal LinearLayout containing a TextView followed by a Spinner next to it. This LinearLayout is dynamically

getViewTreeObserver().addOnGlobalLayoutListener does not work in a recycler view. If you're using a recycler, use View.addOnLayoutChangeListener:

I found that the ellipsizing I defined for textView in xml was not always reflected so I programmatically set it before reassigning the text property. This worked for me.

textView.addOnLayoutChangeListener(new OnLayoutChangeListener() {
    @Override
        public void onLayoutChange(View v, int left, int top, int right, int bottom,
                                   int oldLeft, int oldTop, int oldRight, int oldBottom) {
            textView.removeOnLayoutChangeListener(this);
            float lineHeight = textView.getLineHeight();
            int maxLines = (int) (textView.getHeight() / lineHeight);
            if (textView.getLineCount() != maxLines) {
                textView.setLines(maxLines);
                textView.setEllipsize(TextUtils.TruncateAt.END);
                // Re-assign text to ensure ellipsize is performed correctly.
                textView.setText(model.getText());
            }
        }
    });
