Blow is the solution :-

I created this xml layout:-

<TextView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"android:id="@+id/spiner_item"android:layout_width="match_parent"android:layout_height="@dimen/spiner_height"android:background="@drawable/rounded_edittext"android:gravity="center_vertical"android:paddingLeft="5dp"android:text="Medium Text"android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceMedium"android:textColor="@android:color/black" />
