[android-developers] Making sure that ... (not an ellipsis) is not wrapped

2010-08-27 Thread Fabrizio Giudici

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

In some cases I have messages, typically shown in a toast message,
where there are three trailing periods. For instance, bla bla bla.
Please wait Note that this is _not_ an elipsis, as the string is
not truncated. The problem is that sometimes the string is wrapped at
the end of line and I get two periods in the first line, a newline,
and then a single orphaned period in the next line.

I'd like to have the ... not broken by any means. How can this be
done in a reliable way? E.g. is there any Unicode single char
guaranteed to be available in all Android appliances that
gets rendered as three periods?

 Have you tried putting a span around it... like :

bla bla spanbla.../span
