How to set a TextView to display text in one line in Android

Question

I've set a TextView as the display. I want to display the operation being performed in one line, for example:

9856243187 + 2457896123 - 214583

The problem is, when the input reaches the edge of the TextView - it jumps to the next line.

So, is there anyway to avoid this behavior and keep the input in one line, even if it goes out of the screen?

Answer 1

You should use android:maxLines="1" in your TextView tag. android:singleLine="true" is deprecated.
