Italic TextView with wrap_contents seems to clip the text at right edge

Answer 1

This is my solution: Format textview and measure. After that set width of textview with 1 pixel add to the width measured.

TextView textView = new TextView(this);
textView.setText("Text blah blah");
textView.setTypeface(typeface, Typeface.BOLD_ITALIC)
textView.measure(MeasureSpec.UNSPECIFIED, MeasureSpec.UNSPECIFIED);
textView.setLayoutParams(new LayoutParams(textView.getMeasuredWidth() + 1, 
                                             LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));

Working for me. Hope these help.
