Question:

How do I prevent the EditText from expanding to the sides when text is typed into it?


Markup code ( EditText'ы in the first two LinearLayout'ах ):

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:orientation="vertical"
    android:paddingBottom="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
    android:paddingLeft="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
    android:paddingRight="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
    android:paddingTop="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin">

    <LinearLayout
        android:layout_width="match_parent"

        <TextView
            android:layout_width="0dp"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:layout_marginRight="5dp"
            android:layout_weight="0.45"
            android:text="@string/id_sender"
            android:textColor="@color/black"
            android:textSize="17dp" />

        <EditText
            android:id="@+id/edittext_sender"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:layout_weight="0.55"
            android:gravity="center"
            android:lines="1"
            android:textColor="@color/black"
            android:textSize="17dp" />
    </LinearLayout>

    <LinearLayout
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:orientation="horizontal">

        <TextView

            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:layout_marginRight="5dp"
            android:layout_weight="0.45"
            android:text="@string/id_recipient"
            android:textColor="@color/black"
            android:textSize="17dp" />

        <EditText
            android:id="@+id/edittext_recipient"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"

            android:gravity="center"
            android:lines="1"
            android:textColor="@color/black"
            android:textSize="17dp" />
    </LinearLayout>

    <FrameLayout

            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:layout_weight="1"/>

        <Button
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"

            android:text="@string/login" />
    </LinearLayout>

    <LinearLayout
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"

        <Button
            android:id="@+id/button_stop"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:text="@string/stop_forwarding" />
    </LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>

Answer:

android:layout_width="wrap_content" нужно поменять на android:layout_width="0dp"

<EditText
        android:id="@+id/edittext_sender"
        android:layout_width="0dp"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_weight="0.55"
        android:gravity="center"
        android:lines="1"
        android:textColor="@color/black"
        android:textSize="17dp" />
