Setting text with spannable, wont update unless i click and drag on textview about textjustify-android HOT 21 CLOSED

@xbroak Just call documentView.requestLayout(). This was done in order to optimize when to initiate justification. In other words, you can do batch changes to the settings and then just call requestLayout or invalidate depending on whether you changed any metric affecting features or just some basic color settings respectively.

I tried that! Nothing.

Which version are you running? And can you paste some more of your code here i.e. your layout and activity (portions relating to this lib).

Weird, i am seeing different responses in the email notifications! how strange.

compile 'com.github.bluejamesbond:textjustify-android:2.0.8'

That's the version, just fyi

from textjustify-android.

The only code is the documentview example on the wiki and the code i've pasted in my original post :)

from textjustify-android.

I think I know the issue. I don't have a computer near me. Try calling documentView.invalidateCache() right after you set the updated text. So, it should look like this.

documentView.setText(newText);
documentView.invalidateCache();
documentView.requestLayout();

from textjustify-android.

Hi, sorry to respond so late, it seems that 'invalidateCache' is not a defined method/public

from textjustify-android.

Just tried using destroyCache(); in its place, which does actually make it update! just only the first time, when attempting to set the text a second time, it reverts back to the old behaviour!

from textjustify-android.

Well. It seems that it's as simple as calling 'invalidate' after setting the text. Seems to update as desired now, very peculiar though?

from textjustify-android.

@xbroak You don't need to do any of that anymore. Just set the text and it should change. Use version 2.0.9

from textjustify-android.

I'm afraid, it is not fixed!

from textjustify-android.

Seems to be doing it all over again for some reason, my fix just stopped working.

When highlighting text, it highlights the wrong words! ( even those logging the actual text + html shows the correct setup) and the only way to fix it is to do the familiar drag to update)

from textjustify-android.

Which version are you using?

from textjustify-android.

(Just updated the comment above)

I'm using the latest (2.1.0)

from textjustify-android.

I think you should revert back to tge last working version I'll notify you when I can confirm the sokution.

from textjustify-android.

The weird thing is, even moving back to the old version seems to be doing it now. I literally changed nothing.

from textjustify-android.

I have a feeling i was just getting lucky before and the problem only happens at random.

from textjustify-android.

If you can post a video. That would be the best!

@xbroak you should try to call invalidate() on your DocumentView, I've got almost same problem and this helped. Somehow requestLayout() doesn't force to redraw view

from textjustify-android.

Is there any fix for this yet I am trying to change the inline background for the DocumentView
