title: Check if textview is ellipsized in android
body: <p>I have <code>TextView</code> with width as <code>wrap content</code>. In this <code>TextView</code> I set text, but text is not of the same length every time. When text is very long I use single line true and <code>ellipsize</code>: end. But now I have a problem. I want to set Visibility of other layout but that depends on the length my text. If text is too long to fit in the screen I want to setVisible true, but when text is short and when I don't need ellipsize, I want to set visibility false. So I need to check status of my TextView. When its ellipsize I want to <code>setVisible</code> true, when its not <code>setVisible</code> false. How I can do that. 
  This is what I got:</p>
  
  <pre><code>tvAle.post(new Runnable() {
  
          @Override
          public void run() {
  
              int lineCount    = tvAle.getLineCount();
              Paint paint =  new Paint();
              paint.setTextSize(tvAle.getTextSize());
              final float size = paint.measureText(tvAle.getText().toString());
              Log.v("a", ""+size+" "+tvAle.getWidth());
              if ((int)size &gt; (tvAle.getWidth()+10)) {
                  allergiesLayout.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
              }
  
              else
                  allergiesLayout.setVisibility(View.GONE);
  
          }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>but this solution doesn't work.</p>
