Set drawable to the end of the text, in TextView

I want to set the drawable image to the end of the text but it shows the end of the text view.

Here is my code

<TextView
     android:id="@+id/tv_overweight_messsage"
     android:layout_width="wrap_content"
     android:layout_height="wrap_content
     android:layout_marginTop="@dimen/activity_marginVertical_Large"
     android:gravity="center"
     android:text="dvdmnvkdnxknb vcnbvcxmnbxm,cbn,m vnnxmndxvbhddbv svbhzv"
     android:textColor="@color/required"
     android:textSize="@dimen/textSize_small"
     android:drawablePadding="@dimen/widget_padding"
     android:drawableRight="@drawable/img_infobn"
     android:visibility="gone"
     app:mfafont="@string/font_Questrial_Regular"
     tools:visibility="visible" />

Answer

You can embed an ImageSpan in a SpannableString and set the TextView to display that. For example:

String text = "hello  ";
SpannableStringBuilder sb = new SpannableStringBuilder(text);
ImageSpan imageSpan = new ImageSpan(context, R.drawable.my_icon);
sb.setSpan(imageSpan, text.length() - 1, text.length()), Spanned.SPAN_EXCLUSIVE_EXCLUSIVE);
