Answer 1

EditText within the LinearLayout.

Try this.

LinearLayout linearLayout = new LinearLayout(getContext());
                                LinearLayout.LayoutParams layoutParams = new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(LinearLayout.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT, LinearLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
                                linearLayout.setOrientation(LinearLayout.VERTICAL);
                                layoutParams.setMargins(2, 1, 2, 1);
                                linearLayout.setLayoutParams(layoutParams);

EditText editText = new EditText (getContext());
                                    editText .setTextSize(15);
                                    editText .setLayoutParams(layoutParams);
                                    linearLayout.setGravity(Gravity.CENTER);
                                    editText .setText(Html.fromHtml(directiveMessage));
                                    linearLayout.addView(editText );
