private void setCustomerServiceLayoutOrientationBasedOnTextWidth() {
TextPaint paint = customer_care_number_text.getPaint();
TextView tvCustomerCareTitle = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.customer_care_title);
TextView tvCustomerCareInformation = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.customer_care_information);
int halfCustomerServiceLayoutWidth = getScreenWidth() / 2;
boolean isCustomerCareTitleTooLong = paint.measureText(tvCustomerCareTitle.getText().toString()) > customerServiceLayoutWidth;
boolean isCustomerCareInformationTooLong = paint.measureText(tvCustomerCareInformation.getText().toString) > customerServiceLayoutWidth;
if (isCustomerCareTitleTooLong || isCustomerCareInformationTooLong) {
LinearLayout llCustomerCareBottom = (LinearLayout) findViewById(R.id.customer_care_bottom_layout);
llCustomerCareBottom.setOrientation(LinearLayout.VERTICAL);
}
}
private int getScreenWidth() {
int screenWidth;Display display = getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay();
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT < 13) {
screenWidth = display.getWidth();
} else {
Point point = new Point();
display.getSize(point);
screenWidth = point.x;
}
return screenWidth;
