android, android-edittext, textview

Solution

Keep TextView and EditText inside Relative Layout and Adjust them according to your requirement.

Example:

<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent" >

    <EditText
        android:id="@+id/Edittext"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
        android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
        android:layout_marginTop="20dp"
        android:ems="10"
        android:hint="To my first character" >

        <requestFocus />
    </EditText>

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/text_view"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_alignBaseline="@+id/Edittext"
        android:layout_alignBottom="@+id/Edittext"
        android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
        android:text="123123" />

</RelativeLayout>
