Android TextView background does not move when TextView.Padding changes

I have a TextView that I created in main.xml. In my app.java, I dynamically position the TextView based on where the user takes the screen. The problem I'm running into is that when I call myTextView.setPadding (100,100,0,0), it moves the actual TextView text, but doesn't move the color background of the TextView.

Ideas?

The padding only affects the content of the view, you can inline your view in the LinearLayout and change the padding of the LinearLayout to move the TextView.

If you want to move all of the content, you can use margins instead.

You can use animation to move the view.

Animation a = new TranslateAnimation((oldPos),
                 newPos, 0.0f, 0.0f);
        a.setDuration(300);
        a.setStartOffset(100);
        a.setRepeatMode(Animation.ABSOLUTE);
        a.setFillAfter(true);

        a.setInterpolator(AnimationUtils.loadInterpolator(this.getContext(),
                        android.R.anim.accelerate_decelerate_interpolator));

 View.startAnimation(a);
