Answer 1

you can try this

       <TextView
            android:id="@+id/title"
            style="@style/sectionHeader"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:layout_alignParentEnd="true"
            android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
            android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
            android:layout_marginLeft="10dp"
            android:layout_marginStart="10dp"
            android:lines="1"
            android:maxLines="2"
            android:text="Large Text"
            android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceLarge"
            android:textColor="@color/black" />

add style at your styles.xml

   <style name="sectionHeader"   parent="android:Widget.Holo.Light.TextView">
     <item name="android:drawableBottom">@drawable/section_header</item>
     <item name="android:drawablePadding">4dp</item>
     <item name="android:layout_marginTop">8dp</item>
     <item name="android:paddingLeft">4dp</item>
     <item name="android:textAllCaps">true</item>
     <item name="android:textColor">@color/emphasis</item>
     <item name="android:textSize">14sp</item>
   </style>

make one drawable name as section_header.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
 <shape
   xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
   android:shape="rectangle">
 <size android:width="1000dp" android:height="0.5dp" />
 <solid
    android:color="@color/blue_grey"/>
 </shape>

add color to your color.xml

  <color name="blue_grey">#607d8b</color>
  <color name="emphasis">#31b6e7</color>
