Android - Custom rating bar looks like its bleeding

Question

So I have created a rating bar with new icons, however, when I implement it, the stars look like they are bleeding, see attached:

Here are the style, rating xml, and how they are implemented in the layout:

style:

<style name="GoldRatingBar" parent="@android:style/Widget.RatingBar">
    <item name="android:indeterminateOnly">false</item>
    <item name="android:progressDrawable">@drawable/gold_ratingbar</item>
    <item name="android:indeterminateDrawable">@drawable/gold_ratingbar</item>
    <item name="android:thumb">@null</item>
    <item name="android:isIndicator">true</item>
</style>

rating xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<layer-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <item android:id="@+android:id/background" android:drawable="@drawable/rating_star_icon_off" />
    <item android:id="@+android:id/secondaryProgress" android:drawable="@drawable/rating_star_icon_half" />
    <item android:id="@+android:id/progress" android:drawable="@drawable/rating_star_icon" />
</layer-list>

Layout:

<TextView

    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:gravity="center_vertical"
    android:text="Overall rating"
    android:textSize="16sp"
    android:textStyle="bold" />

<RatingBar
    android:id="@+id/review_overall_rating"
    style="@style/GoldRatingBar"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_marginRight="6dp"
    android:layout_marginLeft="6dp"
    android:rating="3" />

<TextView
    android:id="@+id/review_rating_text"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:gravity="center_vertical"
    android:text=""
    android:textStyle="bold" />

Can anyone see where I have gone wrong?

Answer 1

I had facing same problem.

In my case blank_star.png height is 17dp so i put android:layout_height="17dp" on RatingBar and my problem is resolve.Try below code:-

<RatingBar
    android:id="@+id/rating"
    style="@style/rating_bar"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="17dp"
    android:layout_marginRight="5dp"
    android:isIndicator="true"
    android:numStars="5"
    android:stepSize="1.0" />
