      <Edittext
        android:id="@+id/toolbarTitle"
        android:layout_width="150sp"
        android:hint="User Name"
        android:textSize="15sp"
        android:textStyle="bold"
        android:textColor="#000000"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        />

by elevation you can drop a shadow and by inputtype you can set multiline . — amit, Jul 31 '18 at 12:44

Try this,

<Edittext
    android:id="@+id/toolbarTitle"
    android:layout_width="150sp"
    android:hint="User Name"
    android:textSize="15sp"
    android:textStyle="bold"
    android:textColor="#000000"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:inputType="textMultiLine"
    android:minLines="3"
    />

if you want background image and shadow then use,

<android.support.v7.widget.CardView
    app:cardBackgroundColor="@android:color/white"
    app:cardElevation="5dp"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content">

    <ImageView
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content" />

    <Edittext
        android:id="@+id/toolbarTitle"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:hint="User Name"
        android:textSize="15sp"
        android:textStyle="bold"
        android:textColor="#000000"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:inputType="textMultiLine"
        android:minLines="3"
        />

</android.support.v7.widget.CardView>
