Ok I had to place android:singleLine="true" (http://code.google.com/p/ android/issues/detail?id=882)
and now it is working :) Other question: when you look at this picture: http://snapplr.com/stxg you can see that there are weird symbols in my text. The text is in dutch but if there are symbols used like é or à ... android places a symbol with a "?" I am consuming a web service (xml rpc) and in this response the text is good! How can i fix this?
