Android, How to limit width of TextView (and add three dots at the end of text)?

Question

I have a TextView that I want to limit characters of it. Actually, I can do this but the thing that I\'m looking for is how to add three dots (...) at the end o

Answer 1

I got the desired result by using

android:maxLines="2"
android:minLines="2"
android:ellipsize="end"

The trick is set maxLines and minLines to the same value... and Not just android:lines = "2", dosen't do the trick. Also you are avoiding any deprecated attributes.
