问题
When I insert text to my EditText
field the text has an abnormal gap between itself and the EditText
's line. Here's a printscreen from my terminal where you can see this gap I'm talking about, it is marked in red.

I've played around with text alignment and gravity but to no success.
Here's the XML:
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:paddingBottom="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
android:paddingLeft="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
android:paddingRight="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
android:paddingTop="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
tools:context=".MainActivity">
<TableLayout
android:id="@+id/startJourneyLinearLayout"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:stretchColumns="1">
<TableRow
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent">
<TextView
android:id="@+id/startLocationTxtView"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_column="0"
android:layout_gravity="start"
android:text="@string/startLocation"
android:gravity="center"
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceLarge"/>
<EditText
android:id="@+id/startLocation"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_column="1"
android:gravity = "bottom"
android:hint="Some text"
android:inputType="text"/>
<ImageView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_column="2"
android:src="@drawable/my_ic_location"/>
</TableRow>
<TableRow
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent">
<TextView
android:id="@+id/endLocationTxtView"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_column="0"
android:layout_gravity="start"
android:gravity="center"
android:text="@string/endLocation"
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceLarge"/>
<EditText
android:id="@+id/endLocation"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_column="1"
android:inputType="text"/>
</TableRow>
<Button
android:id="@+id/goButton"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:text="@string/go"/>
</TableLayout>
</RelativeLayout>
Can someone spot why this is happening and explain me how can I fix it?
--------------- EDIT -----------------------
I've updated the XML code I posted in the original question to the real XML code I've on my app as requested in a comment.
The first printscreen (the one above, is from a real device -> Galaxy S4 running Android 4.4.4 CyanogenMod) and here is a printscreen from the emulator using API 19

To change gap between EditText
text and bottom line you can use android:paddingBottom
<EditText
android:id="@+id/nameEditText"
style="@style/DarkEditText"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:hint="@string/name"
android:paddingBottom="20dp"/>
Replace paddingBottom
value as per your requirement. Or you can use android:paddingTop
回答2:
Try
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
instead of
android:layout_height="match_parent"
on your EditText.
回答3:
Try adding padding to edit text
<EditText
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:padding="10dp"
android:hint="Hint"/>
