Restrict AlertDialog Builder to two lines max in Android

I have the following code:

AlertDialog.Builder b = new AlertDialog.Builder(MainActivity.this, R.style.AppDialogTheme); b.setTitle(R.string.opt_out_dialog_title); b.setMessage(R.string.opt_out_dialog_message); b.show();

My String: R.string.opt_out_dialog_message displays sometimes two lines and sometimes three lines within the dialog. I'm wondering if there is a way to restrict it or fix it to a 2 lines max?

You can create a custom view and set it to your dialog by setContentView.
Or you can try this though it's not official(might not work in all OS, device):

Dialog dlg = b.show();
TextView tv = (TextView) dlg.findViewById(android.R.id.message);
tv.setMaxLines(2);

Hope that helps.
