A text view that does not display full text

I am creating a simple layout with TableLayout and TableRow that contain two TextViews. This is part of the code.

<TableLayout 
        android:layout_width="fill_parent" 
        android:layout_height="wrap_content" 
        android:stretchColumns="0">

    <TableRow android:id="@+id/myTableRow">

    <TextView 
        android:layout_width="wrap_content" 
        android:layout_height="wrap_content" 
        android:padding="15dip"
        android:text="Short description"/>

    <TextView 
        android:id="@+id/textView1"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content" 
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:padding="15dip"
        android:text="Large description"/>

    </TableRow>

The problem is that if there is long text in TextView1, then the full text is not displayed. How to show full text in TextView1?

Try updating the XML that you gave in question ... maybe this is what you wanted to do.

<TableLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content" >

    <TableRow android:id="@+id/myTableRow" >

        <TextView
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:padding="15dip"
            android:text="Short description" />

        <TextView
            android:id="@+id/textView1"
            android:layout_width="0dip"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:layout_weight="1"
            android:padding="15dip"
            android:text="Large description" />
    </TableRow>

</TableLayout>

to display multiple lines add:

android:ellipsize="none"// the text is not cropped to the width of the text:

android:scrollHorizontally="false"   //the text wraps on as many lines as necessary:
