android:singleLine="false" on your TextView. Scroll bars are only visible while scrolling, probably to save on screen real estate. > For example if i > have a list I do not want the user have to scroll all the way down on > the main screen to find the controls for the contents of the View. ListView, Grid, and most big-real-estate selection widgets have automatic scrolling as needed. If you wish to scroll an entire form (think the Edit Contacts screen), wrap your whole form in a ScrollView. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com Warescription: All titles, revisions, & ebook formats, just $35/year --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Beginners" group.
