</RelativeLayout>

Answer 1

Use Margin on your TextView, instead of Padding.

Padding adds space inside the View. Margin adds space outside!

For Example: Padding on TextView will move the content of the TextView away from the borders of the TextView. Margin on TextView will move the whole TextView away from its parent's borders.

Answer 2

You can use android:layout_margin="" on your textView instead of android:padding="" . This will make a margin with inserted value in TextView to all the directions (Top,Bottom,Left and Right) of the textView

You can also use these if you want a specific margin applied:

android:layout_marginLeft=""
android:layout_marginTop=""
android:layout_marginRight=""
android:layout_marginBottom=""
