android - Dynamic height of TextView within a GridLayout

Question

I have a problem using GridLayout using library compatibility (not tried without). I am using app:layout_gravity="fill_horizontal" instead of android:layout_gravity="fill_horizontal" but all the content inside the TextView is not displayed. In order to display everything, I have to set the height of the TextView "Title" but I want a dynamic height, not a set height.

Any idea?

Answer 1

You have to set layout_width="0dp" and layout_gravity="fill_horizontal" for the TextView.

<TextView
    android:layout_width="0dp"
    android:layout_gravity="fill_horizontal" />
