I have a horizontal LinearLayout
containing a TextView
followed by a Spinner
next to it. This LinearLayout
is dynamically inflated multiple times in a fixed vertical LinearLayout
contained within a RelativeLayout
.
The problem is that since I switched from Theme.light
to Theme.holo.light
, the last line of the TextView
gets cut in half. This happens when the dynamic text is long and spans more than one row.
I have been able to fix this by adding bottom padding to the horizontal LinearLayout
containing the TextView
and Spinner
.
This does not feel like a fix, but more of a hack. Can someone please give me some advice on how to properly fix this?
I have also read some other questions, but none seem to help.
Horizontal Linear layout:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="horizontal">
<TextView
android:id="@+id/textView1"
android:layout_width="150dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginRight="20dp"
android:text="TextView"/>
<Spinner
android:id="@+id/spinner1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>
</LinearLayout>
Relative layout where above layout is dynamically inflated at Linear Layout with id ll2_7:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" >
<ScrollView
android:id="@+id/scrollView"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_above="@+id/relLayoutButtonNext"
android:layout_below="@id/textView1" >
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:paddingBottom="20dp"
android:paddingLeft="10dp"
android:paddingRight="10dp"
android:paddingTop="10dp" >
<TextView
android:id="@+id/textView10"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:paddingRight="30dp"
android:text="2.7" />
<TextView
android:id="@+id/textView11"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginBottom="10dp"
android:layout_toRightOf="@id/textView10"
android:text="@string/question2_7" />
<LinearLayout
android:id="@+id/ll2_7"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignLeft="@+id/textView11"
android:layout_below="@+id/textView11"

I've encountered the same cut-off issue as shown at the screenshot. It is caused by the baseline alignment in the horizontal LinearLayout
. TextView
and Spinner
have different baselines due to font size difference. To fix the issue it is needed to disable baseline alignment for the layout by setting:
android:baselineAligned="false"
or in the code:
layout.setBaselineAligned(false);
