Hi,
fyi, I did not face appropriate api in genlist how to configure item's height  ( but I 'll check maybe it is possible with EDC). 
What way do you set size of the text in item?
Alexey. 

Hi,

I think you can't change the genlist item height. By default, the text will be truncated with ellipsis if it's too long. Also, this style is good than to change the item height to fit the text size, the extremely scenario is that the whole screen only show one itme, it's very ugly. :)

Hi Guna,

For point one, do you set the text size like follow way?

snprintf(text, sizeof(text), "%s%s%s", "<font_size=40>","abc", "</font_size>");

thanks.

Hi Ashwini,

yes, we can set font size and colors via HTML styles tags, but till now I didn't try all of them, as I know the below tags can be used. Will check and back to you if I find more.

"<b>

<font_size=22>

<color=#ffffff>

text

</color>

</font_size>

</b>"

Hi Ashwini,

Hi Jean, Alex

I am able to show full sub text in multiple line by setting ellipsis=-1.0 as mentioned above.

But it increases the list item height almost 3 times compare to original size and shows unneccessory white space above and below the text.

Hi Dharmesh,

The below format tag will show the sub text correctly in genlist, please add <wrap> tag.

"<wrap=word><ellipsis=-1.0><color=#FF0000>Andy, it's been a long time, how are you man?</color></ellipsis></wrap>",

Hi Dharmesh, 

It's seems some problem in layout, the most easy way to check this, create a sample in IDE, the step list below:

1. Create sample, the name is "UI control", its under Native APP.

2. Find the genlist.c file,  search the "    const char *long_txt[] = " //this is the subline text

3. replace the "Andy, it's been a long time, how are you man?" with below text string;

"<wrap=word><ellipsis=-1.0><color=#FF0000>Andy, it's been a long time, how are you man?</color></ellipsis></wrap>",

4. till now, you can see the sub text was in good order, not take too much withe space, and to check why you meet white space issue, you can compare your code with sample code, or you can share your code, I'll help you to check.
