    public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {
        if (event.getAction() == MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN) {

Use Absolute Layout as parent of textView, to set position of textview, but as its depreciated, you can also use RelativeLayout and set Margins of it dynamically, so you can set your view positioning dynamically anywhere in the layout.
