android:ellipsize not working as intended -

Here's some code, I can repeat the bug, even if I strip everything on a simple text view.

  End Lieutenant: TextView Android: Layout_With = "250dp" Android: Layout_Height = "Wrap-Content" Android: Alpsas = "Medium" Android: SingleLine = "True" Android: Text = "I Very smart I am very smart AM very smart "Android: textSize =" 16sp "& gt; & Lt; / TextView & gt;  

I wish I could post a screenshot but SE is not giving me what is the text that has been shortened in the middle (as intended), but a full oval ( ...) instead of a dot (.) With

all that I do on Lollipop Tablets (Nexus 7 and Nexus 9). Other devices are displaying the ellipses properly. I have researched this issue and got different comments about people who got the same problem, but no answer.

this:

  Android: layout_width = "250dp" Android: Android: singleLine = "true" Android: singleLine = "true" abdroid: focusable = "true" Android: Focusable Infobox = "True" Android: Text = "I'm very smart I'm very smart I'm very smart "Android: Text Size =" 16 SP "& gt; & Lt; / TextView & gt;
