title: Android's spinner automatic scrolling when text is too long
body: <p>In my layout there is a spinner (drop-down list) with fixed width, some entries are longer than the spinner so I want them to automatically scroll horizontally when chosen.</p>
  
  <p>I know you can apply automatic horizontal scroll to textview like this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;TextView
          android:id="@+id/textView1"
          android:layout_width="50dp"
          android:layout_height="25dp"
          android:ellipsize="marquee"
          android:focusable="true"
          android:focusableInTouchMode="true"
          android:marqueeRepeatLimit="marquee_forever"
          android:scrollHorizontally="true"
          android:singleLine="true"
          android:text="Single-line text view that scrolls automatically if the text is too long to fit in the widget" /&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I tried to apply same settings to my spinner as follows:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;Spinner
              android:id="@+id/spinner1"
              android:layout_width="90dp"
              android:layout_height="55"
              android:ellipsize="marquee"
              android:entries="@array/country_arrays"
              android:focusable="true"
              android:focusableInTouchMode="true"
              android:marqueeRepeatLimit="marquee_forever"
              android:scrollHorizontally="true"
              android:singleLine="true" /&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But it doesn't scroll. Any ideas?</p>
