How to animate the textview (very very long text )scroll automatically horizontally

Question

I am not interested in Marquee because, in Marquee you can not control the speed of marquee. I have tried to animate the textview but Parent view clips the text at the end e

Answer 1

This is what worked for me. Place your textview inside a scroll view and then perform TranslateAnimation on the scrollview's child, my case its the LinearLayout. I am actually adding multiple views dynamically inside this linear layout.

    
    


TranslateAnimation slide = new TranslateAnimation(0, 0, height, -textLayout.getHeight());
    slide.setDuration(movementSpeed);
    slide.setRepeatCount(-1);
    slide.setRepeatMode(Animation.RESTART);
    slide.setInterpolator(new LinearInterpolator());

textLayout.startAnimation(slide);

height --> The point start scrolling up (in my case device height (device bottom))
movementSpeed --> scrolling speed
