Basically, the height of TextView increases to the bottom whenever the text goes to a new line. But I want TextView height increase to the top.
Normally this is what happens when text size increases and goes to the new line
And this is what I need when text size increases and goes to the new line
Note: Height of Textview is set to WRAP_CONTENT
