Hi Kumar, Thanks for your reply :)
There is one property supported for TextView named * android:ellipsize="marquee"* I read in android dev-guide/forums that it works only when TextView is in focus in home screen, but i am not able to find any api or way to set TextView as focused item/view so i suspect that is the main reason behind my problem. Somehow if i can set TextView as focused view than text displayed within widget might scroll/move within single line. Please suggest if anybody already tried this or some other way for the same. /Ravi Thanks, Ravi On Fri, Apr 23, 2010 at 10:38 AM, Kumar Bibek <[email protected]> wrote: > Scrolling is not supported on the Widget Framework right now.
