I am using above code but wants to remove gap between image and text i have used android:drawableLeft to insert image in textview
right now i am getting output shown in image

Set attribute android:gravity="left" instead of android:gravity="center" in both TextView

If you are using drawable left for showing image and you want to remove gap between image and text then you need to use android:drawablePadding="-20dp". you need to give drawablePadding in minus.
You can use like :
android:drawableLeft="#mipmap/ic_launcher"
android:drawablePadding="-20dp"

set drawablePadding="0dp" and android:gravity="left|center"

How to adjust margin the Text inside the button

In my app i need to reduce the buton size if i did that the text of the button cannot displayed on that button. so how to align the text inside the button
this is my button.xml code
<Button
android:id="#+id/intro_button"
android:layout_width="560dp"
android:layout_height="80dp"
android:layout_marginLeft="10dp"
android:layout_marginRight="10dp"
android:layout_marginTop="20dp"
android:background="#drawable/button_shape"
android:gravity="center_horizontal"
android:padding="50dp"
android:text="#string/Introduction"
android:textSize="10dp"/>
this is String.xml code
<string name="Introduction"></string>

If you reduce the button size, you have reduce the padding too.
<Button
android:id="#+id/intro_button"
android:layout_width="560dp"
android:layout_height="80dp"
android:layout_marginLeft="10dp"
android:layout_marginRight="10dp"
android:layout_marginTop="20dp"
android:gravity="center_horizontal"
android:padding="30dp"
android:text="Introduction"
android:textSize="10dp"/>

Use a TextView,
set a background with some padding:
<TextView
android:id="#+id/intro_button"
android:layout_width="560dp"
android:layout_height="80dp"
android:layout_marginLeft="10dp"
android:layout_marginRight="10dp"
android:layout_marginTop="20dp"
android:background="#drawable/button_shape"
android:gravity="center_horizontal"
android:padding="50dp"
android:text="#string/Introduction"
android:textSize="10dp"/>
Then, in your java file, find your textview using the id and set an OnClickListener on it

Use this,
Depending on your Text and textSize Button will Create:
<Button
android:id="#+id/intro_button"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginLeft="10dp"
android:layout_marginRight="10dp"
android:layout_marginTop="20dp"
android:background="#drawable/button_shape"
android:gravity="center_horizontal"
android:padding="50dp"
android:textColor="#color/colorPrimary"
android:text="stringIntroduction"
android:textSize="20dp"/>

In my case adding android:padding="50dp" also added space on the whole button , so i just wanted to add some extra space on the right/left so that text didn't overlap with the button layout:
android:paddingRight="5dp"
android:paddingLeft="5dp"

Android TextView Not Wraping up the text for hindi text

Currently I faced a problem in an application when I was trying to display text on text view which is HINDI font text on a textView it does not wrap it. It look like
My TextView code is
<TextView
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginLeft="10dp"
android:layout_marginRight="10dp"
android:gravity="center_horizontal"
android:padding="10dp"
android:textSize="19sp"
android:textColor="#android:color/white" />
Can anyone help me to solve this problem?

Try following properly for TextView
android:maxLines="2"

Add this for your TextView:
android:ellipsize="none"
android:singleLine="false"

Try this..
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginLeft="10dp"
android:layout_marginRight="10dp"
android:gravity="center_horizontal"
android:padding="10dp"
android:textSize="19sp"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:ellipsize="none"
android:maxLines="100"
android:scrollHorizontally="false"
android:textColor="#android:color/white" />

Android: how to make multiline text auto scroll down?

I want to make the multiline text auto scroll down as I add in more text:
<EditText
android:id="#+id/Text"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_above="#+id/TypeBox"
android:layout_below="#+id/ReceiverName"
android:layout_marginLeft="10dip"
android:layout_marginRight="10dip"
android:layout_weight="0.65"
android:ems="10"
android:focusable="false"
android:gravity="bottom"
android:inputType="textMultiLine|textNoSuggestions" >
</EditText>
I have tried searching for it but all i could find is auto scroll of a text box within a scroll view.

android:inputType="textMultiLine"
android:editable="true"
android:enabled="true"
android:minLines="6"
android:maxLines="6"
android:isScrollContainer="true"
android:focusable="true"
Refer this link for more info
https://alvinalexander.com/source-code/android/android-edittext-isscrollcontainer-example-how-make-multiline-scrolling

I think, you need to add a line:
android:inputType="textFilter|textMultiLine|textNoSuggestions"

Add bellow code in activity onCreate(), this Add scroll behavior to
text view
textView.setMovementMbehavior ScrollingMovementMethod());
<TextView
android:id="#+id/textView"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_centerInParent="true"
android:layout_marginBottom="5dp"
android:layout_marginTop="5dp"
android:text="text"
android:textColor="#ffffff"
android:textSize="20sp"/>
