set width to the textview doesn't work
android, view
Solution
You have to try set the width with `LayoutParams` option like this :
TextView tv = new TextView(getContext());
LayoutParams params = new LayoutParams(119,LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
tv.setLayoutParams(params);
Problem
I want to set the width of my text-view in code to `width =119` ``` tv.setWidth(width); int width2 = tv.getWidth(); ``` but I get the result ``` width2 =12 ``` I have this code in the onlayout method and when onlayout called again (I think when the text-view is actually on screen )by the android system the result will be correct ``` width2 =119 ``` I think if the width is set to fixed value you can set it again to the another value before it is drawn in the UI. How can I know when onlayout will be called because sometimes it doesn't called again I mean after the textview is actually on screen?
