Solved android android-layout xml-layout

I have one ImageView and a TextView in my xml layout. I want to show the text below that i got by webservice on the right side of the ImageView. Can i show that text by using that one TextView ?

I tried to give android:singleLine="false" in xml layout but no use.

Example usage:

 <com.pagesuite.flowtext.FlowTextView
     android:id="@+id/tv"
     android:layout_width="fill_parent"
     android:layout_height="wrap_content" >

     <ImageView
         android:layout_width="wrap_content"
         android:layout_height="wrap_content"
         android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
         android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
         android:padding="10dip"
         android:src="@drawable/android" />

     <ImageView
         android:layout_width="wrap_content"
         android:layout_height="wrap_content"
         android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
         android:layout_marginTop="400dip"
         android:padding="10dip"
         android:src="@drawable/android2" />

</com.pagesuite.flowtext.FlowTextView>

your code:

for Text:

tv = (FlowTextView) findViewById(R.id.tv);                  
tv.setText("my string"); // using plain text    
tv.invalidate(); // call this to render the text

for HTML:

tv = (FlowTextView) findViewById(R.id.tv);              
Spanned spannable = Html.fromHtml("<html ... </html>");
tv.setText(spannable);  // using html
tv.invalidate(); // call this to render the text

You dont have to convert it to html. dont use spanable just tv.setText(yourtextfromwebservice); – Tapley 23/11, 2012 at 11:17

lagy. even the sample of library is not scrolling smoothely – Gesualdo 17/9, 2014 at 12:48

This has been discussed here : Textview wrap around View and here wrap text view around img view

Apparently, a solution is to use a Spannable and an ImageSpan as described is this answer Textview wrap around View

Another solution is to use a webview and make you layout in html.
