我正在寻找一种最佳的方法来调整包装文本在一个TextView,使它将适合它的getHeight和getWidth界限。我不是简单地寻找一种方法来包装文本-我想确保它既包装,又足够小,完全适合在屏幕上。

我在StackOverflow上看到了一些需要自动调整大小的情况,但它们要么是非常特殊的情况下的hack解决方案,没有解决方案,或涉及重新绘制TextView递归直到它足够小(这是内存紧张,迫使用户观看文本收缩一步一步与每次递归)。

但我相信有人已经找到了一个很好的解决方案,它不涉及我正在做的事情:编写几个繁重的例程来解析和测量文本,调整文本的大小,然后重复,直到找到一个合适的小尺寸。

TextView使用什么例程来包装文本?难道这些不能用来预测文本是否足够小吗?

是否有一个最佳实践的方法来自动调整TextView的大小,以适应,包装,在它的getHeight和getWidth边界?


当前回答

我刚刚创建了以下方法(基于Chase的想法),如果你想在任何画布上绘制文本,它可能会帮助你:

private static void drawText(Canvas canvas, int xStart, int yStart,
        int xWidth, int yHeigth, String textToDisplay,
        TextPaint paintToUse, float startTextSizeInPixels,
        float stepSizeForTextSizeSteps) {

    // Text view line spacing multiplier
    float mSpacingMult = 1.0f;
    // Text view additional line spacing
    float mSpacingAdd = 0.0f;
    StaticLayout l = null;
    do {
        paintToUse.setTextSize(startTextSizeInPixels);
        startTextSizeInPixels -= stepSizeForTextSizeSteps;
        l = new StaticLayout(textToDisplay, paintToUse, xWidth,
                Alignment.ALIGN_NORMAL, mSpacingMult, mSpacingAdd, true);
    } while (l.getHeight() > yHeigth);

    int textCenterX = xStart + (xWidth / 2);
    int textCenterY = (yHeigth - l.getHeight()) / 2;

    canvas.save();
    canvas.translate(textCenterX, textCenterY);
    l.draw(canvas);
    canvas.restore();
}

这可以在任何自定义视图的任何onDraw()方法中使用。

其他回答

你可以使用android.text.StaticLayout类。这就是TextView内部使用的。

在2017年谷歌IO大会上,谷歌介绍了TextView的autoSize属性

https://youtu.be/fjUdJ2aVqE4

<android.support.v7.widget.AppCompatTextView
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:text="@string/my_text"
        app:autoSizeTextType="uniform"
        app:autoSizeMaxTextSize="10sp"
        app:autoSizeMinTextSize="6sp"
        app:autoSizeStepGranularity="1sp"/>

为那些在Xamarin.Android上编码的人提供了这个用c#重写的顶级答案版本。对我来说很管用。

我从Chase的解决方案开始,但在我的设备(Galaxy Nexus, Android 4.1)上正常工作之前,我必须调整两件事:

using a copy of TextPaint for measuring layout The documentation for TextView.getPaint() states that it should be used read-only, so I made a copy in both places where we use the paint object for measuring: // 1. in resizeText() if (mAddEllipsis && targetTextSize == mMinTextSize && textHeight > height) { // Draw using a static layout // modified: use a copy of TextPaint for measuring TextPaint paint = new TextPaint(textPaint); // 2. in getTextHeight() private int getTextHeight(CharSequence source, TextPaint originalPaint, int width, float textSize) { // modified: make a copy of the original TextPaint object for measuring // (apparently the object gets modified while measuring, see also the // docs for TextView.getPaint() (which states to access it read-only) TextPaint paint = new TextPaint(originalPaint); // Update the text paint object paint.setTextSize(textSize); ... adding a unit to setting the text size // modified: setting text size via this.setTextSize (instead of textPaint.setTextSize(targetTextSize)) setTextSize(TypedValue.COMPLEX_UNIT_PX, targetTextSize); setLineSpacing(mSpacingAdd, mSpacingMult);

With these two modifications the solution is working perfectly for me, thanks Chase! I don't know whether it is due to Android 4.x that the original solution was not working. In case you want to see it in action or test whether it really works on your device, you can have a look at my flashcard app Flashcards ToGo where I use this solution to scale the text of a flashcard. The text can have arbitrary length, and the flashcards are displayed in different activities, sometimes smaller sometimes bigger, plus in landscape + portrait mode, and I haven't found any corner case where the solution would not work properly...

我需要调整文本的大小,以完美地适应视图边界。Chase的解决方案只是减小文本大小,如果有足够的空间,这个方案也会扩大文本。

为了使所有的快速和精确,我使用了平分方法而不是迭代while,正如你可以在resizeText()方法中看到的那样。这就是为什么你也有一个MAX_TEXT_SIZE选项。我还附上了onoelle的建议。
