Android Question [Solved] How to disable hyphenation in Android?

asales · May 9, 2019

I have a problem with Android break my lines and put a hyphen in the word:

I try to put this code in the manifest, but don't works:

B4X:

SetApplicationAttribute(android:hyphenationFrequency, "none")

https://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/TextView#attr_android:hyphenationFrequency

I don't want to break the word with a hyphen.
How to disable this behavior?

Thanks in advance for any tip.

This is an Android 6+ feature:

B4X:

Dim p As Phone
If p.SdkVersion >= 23 Then
 Dim jo As JavaObject = YourLabel
 jo.RunMethod("setHyphenationFrequency", Array(0)) 'none
End If
