Hi All, I have created a widget to be displayed on android emulator's home screen to display some long text. In my main.xml layout file i've already set TextView properties like singleLine="true", ellipsize="marquee", focusable="true" etc, but still when my widget is displayed on home screen text does not move/scroll.
----------------- main.xml layout file ------------------------ <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/ android" android:layout_width="fill_parent" androidrientation="vertical" android:layout_gravity="center" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:background="@drawable/ background"> <TextView android:id="@+id/widget_textview" android:text="@string/widget_text" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal|center" android:layout_marginTop="5dip" androidadding="10dip" android:textColor="@android:color/black" android:singleLine="true" android:ellipsize="marquee" android:focusable="true" /> </LinearLayout> ----------------- end of main.xml layout file ------------------------ ------------- My WidgetProvider.java file ---------------------- package com.android.weatherdata; import android.util.Log; import android.widget.RemoteViews; import android.appwidget.AppWidgetManager; import android.appwidget.AppWidgetProvider; import android.content.Context; import android.content.Intent; import android.app.PendingIntent; public class WeatherWidget extends AppWidgetProvider{ private static final String TAG = "WeatherWidget"; @Override public void onUpdate(Context context, AppWidgetManager appWidgetManager, int[] appWidgetIds) { Log.d("WEATHER-WIDGET", "onUpdate(): "); final int N = appWidgetIds.length; // Perform this loop procedure for each App Widget that belongs to this provider for (int i=0; i<N; i++) { int appWidgetId = appWidgetIds[i]; // Create an Intent to launch ExampleActivity Intent intent = new Intent(context, Weather.class); PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(context, 0, intent, 0); Log.i("WEATHER-WIDGET", " Create and Attach Text-view click handler "); // Get the layout for the App Widget and attach an on-click listener to the button RemoteViews views = new RemoteViews(context.getPackageName(), R.layout.main); views.setOnClickPendingIntent(R.id.widget_textview , pendingIntent); // Tell the AppWidgetManager to perform an update on the current App Widget appWidgetManager.updateAppWidget(appWidgetId, views); } } } ----------------- End of WidgetProvider file-------------------- When i add widget on home screen than only some part of text is displayed as " Latest Weather Infor" but i would like to write the code in such a way that the complete text should scroll till the complete string/text is displayed. Please suggest whether i need to change my layout file or what logic i can write so that i can scroll the text.
