If you include in the text n after every char you get what you want:



android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="1n2n3n4n5n.n.n."

you just need to add new line after every letter, for do it, you need to use simple loop to get letter by Index, and String to cat result, then set result in the TextView after loop complete, this is the java code, just copy past and change textview id to your textview id:



TextView myTextview = findViewById(R.id.textview_id);
String Result = "";
for(int i = 0; i < myTextview.length(); i++){
Result = Result + "n" + myTextview.getText().toString().charAt(i);
}
Result = Result.replace(" ", "");
myTextview.setText(Result.trim());
