Prevent TextView from wrapping in parent

check out android:maxLines="1" and if you want to add ending ... add also android:ellipsize="end"

<TextView
   android:id="@+id/name"
   android:text="i want this to crop not wrap"
   android:layout_width="fill_parent"
   android:layout_height="wrap_content"
   android:maxLines="1"
   android:ellipsize="end" />

android:singleLine="true" was deprecated in API Level 3.
