Java: How to add a png image to the middle of a sentence

Question

It should look like this:

I'm specifically using android studio. I currently have a textview and my text in the strings.xml file, but I understand there are other ways of doing the code. I have several paragraphs to write, so I figured this would be the best place to insert the text. I will need to include an image, a button, and links straight into the sentences I'm writing. (Any advice for each of those would be helpful) But, my first issue is that I don't know how to add the image into the middle of the sentence. All relevant posts are incomplete or outdated.

Answer 1

I would suggest if you wish to display large amount of text then use something like WebView with some html template engine.

Answer 2

To achieve this you need to use setCompoundDrawablesWithIntrinsicBounds() method of TextView. Heopfully this will help you. Or you can use **SpannableStringBuilder ** for this to get. I hope this will help you.

UPDATED: Here sample is available. I am attaching link as well. It will help you in your implementation

Answer 3

I have implemented this type of code in my app but I was used dependency which I describe here...

Implement this dependency in your build.gradle file

implementation 'org.sufficientlysecure:html-textview:4.0'

and then write this line in your build.gradle(Root level) or on the settings.gradle file

repositories {
        jcenter()
    }

Layout.xml

<org.sufficientlysecure.htmltextview.HtmlTextView
                android:id="@+id/textView"
                android:textAppearance="@android:style/TextAppearance.Small"
                android:layout_width="match_parent"
                android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                android:textColor="@color/black"
                android:textSize="13dp" />

In your Activity.java file in OnCreate Method

TextView textView;

textView = (TextView) itemView.findViewById(R.id.textView);
textView.setHtml("<b>Hello</b> this is my Text <span/> <img src="yourimage.jpg"> <span/> Another Text, new HtmlHttpImageGetter(myHolder.question));
