Hi all, I want to have a textview (like a console or output window), which scrolls. I saw on this list that the TextView will not scroll on its own unless I wrap it in a ScrollView. So I did that and it worked. The problem is, it seemed no matter what I did I could not get the TextView to be higher than one line. This was only when it was embedded in the ScrollView, and didn't seem to change whatever I set the TexView's layout_height to. Here is my layout:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:orientation="vertical"> <ScrollView android:id="@+id/ScrollView02" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="1.0dp" android:layout_weight="1.0"> <TextView android:id="@+id/TextView01" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent"></TextView> </ScrollView> </LinearLayout> Adding android:text="some text" android:minHeight="50dp" finally did the trick! But, I would still like to understand why I had to do this. It seemed like setting layout_height to "fill_parent" should be enough, shouldn't it? What am I missing here?
