tablelayout - Android table layout formatting problems -

i can not tablelayout fit inside screen when text cell large, despite text wraps inside cell.

this tablelayout. simple two-rows, two-columns table. left column cells multiline. if text of 1 of these cell large enought break in 2 lines, column stretched fill entire screen , right columns pushed out of screen.

why? how can force full table stay inside screen? hint welcomed.

my tablelayout following:

<tablelayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:id="@+id/mytablelayout" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" > <tablerow>     <textview         android:text="account 4 large name see if breaks  on 2 or more lines"         android:singleline="false"         android:layout_width="wrap_content"         android:layout_height="wrap_content"         >     </textview>     <textview         android:text="$400.00"         android:gravity="right"         android:layout_width="wrap_content"         android:layout_height="wrap_content"         >     </textview> </tablerow>  <tablerow>     <textview         android:text="account 5"         android:singleline="false"         android:layout_width="wrap_content"         android:layout_height="wrap_content"         >     </textview>     <textview         android:text="$400.00"         android:gravity="right"         android:layout_width="wrap_content"         android:layout_height="wrap_content"         >     </textview> </tablerow>  </tablelayout> 

the code display layout basic:

public class accountbrowsertest      extends activity {     public void oncreate(bundle savedinstancestate)      {             super.oncreate(savedinstancestate);          this.setcontentview(r.layout.accountbrowser_test);      } }  

add android:stretchcolumns , android:shrinkcolumns tablelayout element:

<tablelayout   android:layout_width="match_parent"   android:layout_height="wrap_content"   android:stretchcolumns="1"   android:shrinkcolumns="1"> 

the 1 values columns want changes occur. can specify more 1 value this:

android:stretchcolumns="0,1" 

or if want changes happen columns this:

android:stretchcolumns="*"
