title: Android studio HINT text design
body: <p>So i am making an application for school. We have to use Android studio.
  I want to make a bar with an icon and a placeholder (android: hint).
  When i make this with this code, the hint text is at the left of the box.</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;EditText
          android:layout_width="280dp"
          android:layout_height="55dp"
          android:inputType="textEmailAddress"
          android:ems="10"
          android:id="@+id/email"
          android:layout_centerVertical="true"
          android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
          android:background="@drawable/email"
          android:hint="Email" &lt;---
  /&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>When i do it like this, the hint text is centered:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;EditText
          android:layout_width="280dp"
          android:layout_height="55dp"
          android:inputType="textEmailAddress"
          android:ems="10"
          android:id="@+id/email"
          android:layout_centerVertical="true"
          android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
          android:background="@drawable/email"
          android:hint="Email"
          android:gravity="center" &lt;---
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>/></p>
  
  <p>How can i change the place of my hint text in other ways? I want it to be in 1/3 of the box.
  But i have no idea how to do it.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance</p>
