I am not interested in Marquee because, in Marquee you can not control the speed of marquee.
I have tried to animate the textview but Parent view clips the text at the end even though all parent layout and view groups encompassing textviews are set with two flags clipchildren= false, clipToPadding=false.

Am I missing something or is there a better work around ?

The xml looks like 

```
<TextView
        android:id="@+id/textview1"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
        android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
        android:layout_marginBottom="66dp"
        android:maxLines="1"
        android:singleLine="true"
        android:textColor="#585858"
        android:textSize="32sp" >
    </TextView>

```

and code snippet look like

```
TextView textView2 = (TextView)findViewById( R.id.textview1 );    
textView2.startAnimation((Animation)AnimationUtils.loadAnimation(this, R.anim.translate));

```
