0
This question exist two times :
Line break n doesn't work, it show as string
String Resource new line /n not possible?
But neither n or hit enter in strings.xml gives me a line break in the textView that i set the text.
Does anyone knows why?
UPDATE:
My textView:
<TextView
android:id="@+id/textView"
android:layout_width="952dp"
android:layout_height="172dp"
android:layout_marginStart="8dp"
android:layout_marginTop="8dp"
android:layout_marginEnd="8dp"
android:layout_marginBottom="8dp"
android:ems="10"
android:inputType="textPersonName"
android:text="@string/give_username"
android:textSize="45sp"
android:textStyle="bold"
app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintVertical_bias="0.003" />
How i set the text:
this.textView.setText(R.string.give_sex_age);
The string in resources:
<string name="give_sex_age">You are a new user.nPlease give your sex and your age</string>

If your TextView'sinputTypeis set to "text", this may be a reason why the line breaks are ignored. Having said that, some more information (e.g., a concrete example) would help giving a specific answer.
