Hey Hardik thanks for the reply but its not the solution i am lookin for. My problem is that the text in that text view should scroll by itself kind of like the News ticker, I am however able to achieve it with the first Text view which when replicated for the second text view does not give the same results.if you can run this on the emulator then i think the issue would be evident.
