title: How do I determine how much text will fit in a TextView in Android?
body: <p>I have a layout that looks something like this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>[TextView 1] [TextView 2]
  [ TextView 2 spill-over ]
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Essentially, I need the contents of TextView 2 to wrap to the next line, but start where TextView 1 starts. I was thinking that if I knew how much text would fit into TextView 2 before it runs out of space on line one, I could take the rest of the text and put it in another TextView below the first two. So I need to measure how much text will fit into a TextView (which can be tricky because as far as I can tell, Android will try to break the text in a TextView at a good location so that it won't break a word in the middle if it can be avoided) or I need a new idea on how to lay this out.</p>
  
  <p>Any help would be greatly appreciated.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance,</p>
