Maybe I didn't tell you about the problem enough:
I build my own web services to collect data and export into xml file. My Android app will retrieve data from xml file. I want to display the content on a ScrollView so that user can scroll up/down to read. But I can't control the length of the text (it can be very long but sometime it's short).
- Firstly, I tried EditText but I deleted it because I can't change the transparency level (and keyboard will pop up when user touch it).
- Now the only way is combining Label with ScrollView. But how can I set the Label.Height if I don't know how long the text will be? It's the same with Inner Height property of ScrollView. All I can do is set it a very big value and hope the text length will not over it. But with short text, it's very ugly (and looks amatuer).
Please do something. Thank you.
