Answer 1

Give padding to each edittextview.

    address.setpadding(0,5,0,5) ;
    addressCity.setpadding(0,5,0,5) ;
    addressState.setpadding(0,5,0,5) ;

should work.

Try to using LayoutParams :

LinearLayout.LayoutParams params = new LinearLayout.LayoutParams
                     (LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT, LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT, 1f);
params.setMargins(10, 0, 10, 0);
layout.setLayoutParams(params);
