The text inside the textview breaks with hyphen on different devices. It works fine on most devices. How can I stop the text from breaking? I'm using different dimens.
This is my code for the textbox,
<TextView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:gravity="center_horizontal"
android:lines="2"
android:text="Medical History"
android:textSize="@dimen/text_label" />
These are the values of text_label:
<dimen name="text_label">16sp</dimen>
<dimen name="text_label">19.2sp</dimen> //hdpi
<dimen name="text_label">22.4sp</dimen> //xhdpi
<dimen name="text_label">25.6sp</dimen> //xxhdpi
<dimen name="text_label">28.8sp</dimen> //xxxhdpi

android:breakStrategy="simple"
