I'm trying to add multiple lines of text to a button but when trying the answers from this question:
My button moves down, or adds a margin above itself. Any ideas why?

What do you mean by 'it moves down'? In relation to what? – Christopher Perry Jul 24 '12 at 16:23

If you have 3 buttons lined up together vertically, the one's that contain enough text to wrap to a 2nd line will be displaced by about 16dp downwards, for no reason – behelit Apr 30 '18 at 06:45

Try to set android:baselineAligned="false" in layout where button is placed.

2One of my buttons is 2 lines of text when viewed in a language other than english and the button kept moving up on the screen for multi-line text. I added android:baselineAligned="false" to the LinearLayout it was in and it's fixed - THANK YOU! This should be marked as the answer. – DiscDev Feb 21 '13 at 03:53
