Custom Text Bar

Question

Hello i am looking for a way to have a text box (like so) with my disclamer in it so i would like a way of haveing a scroll bar up & down because the text will be a bit long and i cant fit it in the box at the moment.

thank you

Try wrapping your EditText in a ScrollView. It is a little difficult to understand what you're asking. — adneal

Try following...

<EditText android:id="@+id/edit_text" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:singleLine="false" android:maxLines="3" android:scrollbars="vertical"> </EditText>

Android TextView with scrollbars and maxHeight
