Title Body

I am making a small app for a tablet, something like a display sign. I have a few text elements that are center aligned in the display sign. When I tap on it, it gets converted to editText. I want the edit text in such a way that the text in it is center aligned and content wrapped. But when i input something, editText expands both ways, keeping the text aligned to the center. I want to do the same thing with right aligned text elements (only difference is that the edit text would expand only towards the left). When i am trying to do this right now it expands towards the left.This is my code for laying out the edit Text element tempView=new EditText(this); ((EditText) tempView).setTextSize(shrinkedFontSize); ((EditText) tempView).setTypeface(tf); ((EditText) tempView).setText(tempInput.getText()); ((EditText) tempView).setGravity(Gravity.CENTER); layout.addView(tempView, tempParams); I am setting the width of the layout as Wrap_content in the layout parameters. I have also specified the x and y in my layout parameters for the top left corner of the edit text. Is there any way to achieve this ?
