title: How to set Margin of a textview in a relative layout
body: <p>I've read a few answers about setting margins of a textview programmatically when the parent is a LinearLayout, but in my case i need to set margin of a textview in a relativelayout</p>
  
  <p>here's what i tried and didn't work:</p>
  
  <p>description is my textview in the following code:</p>
  
  <pre><code>RelativeLayout.LayoutParams params1 = new RelativeLayout.LayoutParams(RelativeLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, RelativeLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
          params1.addRule(RelativeLayout.RIGHT_OF, idsArray[i]);
          params1.addRule(RelativeLayout.LEFT_OF, R.id.imageButtonCamera);
          params1.addRule(RelativeLayout.BELOW, R.id.divider);
          params1.setMargins(8, 8, 8, 8)
  
          description.setLayoutParams(params1);
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Any hint ?</p>
  
  <p>UDPATE:</p>
  
  <p>my layout xml file:</p>
  
  <p>the TextView with id textViewTip is the one i need to change relative and margins attributes.</p>
