title: How to change hint text size without changing the text size in EditText
body: <p>I have a <code>EditText</code> input field. I have added a hint in it. Now i want to change the size of hint text, but when i do this, it also effects the size of the text. Kindly guide me how to change the size of hint and text separately, and give different fonts to both the hint and the text.</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;EditText
      android:layout_width="0dp"
      android:layout_height="50dp"
      android:layout_weight="1"
      android:textSize="12sp"
      android:textColor="#ffffff"                            
      android:fontFamily="sans-serif-light"
      android:hint="MM/YY"
      android:textColorHint="@color/white" /&gt;  
  </code></pre>
