How do I tell if my textview has been ellipsized?

by

You can get the layout of the TextView and check the ellipsis count per line. For an end ellipsis, it is sufficient to check the last line, like this:

Layout l = textview.getLayout();
if (l != null) {
    int lines = l.getLineCount();
    if (lines > 0)
        if (l.getEllipsisCount(lines-1) > 0)
            Log.d(TAG, "Text is ellipsized");
}

This only works after the layout phase, otherwise the returned layout will be null, so call this at an appropriate place in your code.
