I am using android:ellipsize=\"end\" in android xml file, & surprisingly I am not getting the layout that I want, the 3 dots(...) are showing but after that

Answer 1

i used :

if (myModel.mDataText().length() > 150) {
    mTextView.setText(Html.fromHtml(myModel.mDataText().substring(0, 150) + "..."));
} else {
    mTextView.setText(Html.fromHtml(myModel.mDataText() + "..."));
}
