    <TextView 
    android:layout_width="fill_parent" 
    android:layout_height="wrap_content" 
    android:maxLines="4"

       There are a few attributes you should check: android:lines, android:minLines,                             android:maxLines. To display a maximum of 4 lines and ellipsize it, you just need                         android:maxLines and android:ellipsize:


<TextView

    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:maxLines="4"
    android:ellipsize="marquee"
    android:text="Hai!"
    />

Android and   in TextView ?
