I am using the PlaceAutocompleteFragment that is provided by google in a project that I am working on right now. But the problem is I need to display the place name that I've selected from the autocomplete widget but the whole text in not showing because the default textsize in the widget is too big. So, is there any way I can change the textsize in the PlaceAutocompleteFragment without creating my own custom search UI?
My XML code:
<android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:id="@+id/drawer_layout"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:fitsSystemWindows="true"

tools:openDrawer="start">
<LinearLayout

</LinearLayout>
<FrameLayout

And a screenshot of the problem:
Using fragment instance you can change the font size and whatever you want with the Search box EditText
.. this is how you need to do
// placeAutocompleteFragment - is my PlaceAutocompleteFragment instance
((EditText)placeAutocompleteFragment.getView().findViewById(R.id.place_autocomplete_search_input)).setTextSize(10.0f);

Looks like in latest SDK view id is changed to R.id.places_autocomplete_search_input
