How to get number of lines of TextView?

Question

I want to get the number of lines of a text view

textView.setText(\"Test line 1 Test line 2 Test line 3 Test line 4 Test line 5.............\")

Answer 1

You can also calculate the amount of lines through this function:

private fun countLines(textView: TextView): Int {
        return Math.ceil(textView.paint.measureText(textView.text.toString()) /
                textView.measuredWidth.toDouble()).toInt()
    }

Keep in mind that It may not work very well on a RecyclerView though.
