Ellipsis for emojicon

[seema7]

when i enter more emojicons and they are out of the view then I am not able to show ellipsis. I tried android:singleLine="true"
android:ellipsize="end"
but not working.
Please help.

It happens with Android stock apps too. Seems to be a limitation of some kind. I tried to look for a solution, didn't find any.

I can see the ellipsize just fine:

<com.rockerhieu.emojicon.EmojiconTextView
    app:emojiconSize="18dp"
    tools:text="Hey man, do you see 😁 😁 😁 😁 😁 😁 😁 😁 "
    android:lines="1"
    android:ellipsize="end"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content" />

@rockerhieu did you try by placing more letters (so the letters overflow) and some emojis at the end? In some cases (such as a ListView item) you can a half emoji at the end. But that's probably a different case from the one OP described.

@rockerhieu I tried your solution and it works only when text is there at the end not for emojicons.
Half emoji is displayed when Emoji is at the end or emojis that are out of the view. Please help.
