In your MainActivity initialize a variable of MainActivity class like below. public class MainActivity extends Activity { private static MainActivity ins; protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); ins = this; } public static MainActivity getInstace(){ return ins; } public void updateTheTextView(final String t) { MainActivity.this.runOnUiThread(new Runnable() { public void run() { TextView textV1 = (TextView) … Read more
Try this: private boolean isTooLarge (TextView text, String newText) { float textWidth = text.getPaint().measureText(newText); return (textWidth >= text.getMeasuredWidth ()); } Detecting how many characters fit will be impossible due to the variable width of the characters. The above function will test if a particular string will fit or not in the TextView. The content of … Read more

I built a custom class that extends TextView and adds a method “setSpacing”. The workaround is similar to what @Noah said. The method adds a space between each letter of the String and with SpannedString changes the TextScaleX of the spaces, allowing positive and negative spacing. /** * Text view that allows changing the letter … Read more
