Text is not visible when setmovementmethod is called on a textview with singleline is true

Vote count:

I have this textView in my app for which singleLine is set as true.

When I call setMovementMethod(LinkMovementMethod.getInstance()) on it and set some arabic or urdu text, the text is not visible. Although the textview is visible(i have checked by applying color on its background.

I tried using maxlines=1 instead of single line which fixes visibility problem, but my text being very long, the text in textview becomes scrollable instead of being ellipsized.

Am I doing something wrong? Is there a way to mmake text ellipsized instead of scrolling in case of maxlines=1?

Appreciate any help.
