Setting margin in layout params will not work in Alertdialog  you have to set padding in parent layout and then add edittext in that layout    This is my working kotlin code     val alert    AlertDialog Builder context     val edittext   EditText context    edittext hint    Enter Name  edittext maxLines   1  val layout   FrameLayout context       set padding in parent layout layout setPaddingRelative 45 15 45 0   alert setTitle title   layout addView edittext   alert setView layout   alert setPositiveButton getString R string label save   DialogInterface OnClickListener        dialog  which - gt      run            val qName   edittext text toString            Utility hideKeyboard context    dialogView               alert setNegativeButton getString R string label cancel   DialogInterface OnClickListener                dialog  which - gt              run                   dismiss                      alert show
