Field Detail

CHAR

public static final WrapMode CHAR

Wrap text, breaking lines anywhere the cursor can appear (between characters, usually)

NONE

public static final WrapMode NONE

Do not wrap lines; attempt to make the TextView as wide as the widest line in the underlying TextBuffer; lines will be truncated if they are longer than the width allocated to the TextView.

WORD

public static final WrapMode WORD

Wrap text, breaking lines in between words. This is usually the one you want if you are trying to enable word wrapping, but keep in mind that something also has to act to constrain the width of the TextView as it is packed into a Container hierarchy or no wrapping will occur.

WORD_CHAR

public static final WrapMode WORD_CHAR

Wrap text, breaking lines in between words, or if that is not enough, also between graphemes. FIXME What is a grapheme?
