Add these fields to the textview on your xml layout:

android:scrollHorizontally="true"
android:ellipsize="end" 
android:maxLines="1"

Method 1: Set singleLine property to true.

android:maxLines="1"
android:ellipsize="end"

Also, if you want to fit the entire title in one line.

Try setting font size as per screen density:

Create resource folders like:

values-ldpi
values-mdpi
values-hdpi

Create dimensions.xml file in each folder with appropriate text size:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>
    <dimen name="text_size">15sp</dimen>
</resources>

Set the text in xml or in java file as:

textView.setTextSize(getResources().getDimension(R.dimen.text_size));
