How to disable floating label animation when populating EditText Fields wrapped in TextInputLayout

Question

I would like to be able to have the floating label already in place when I pre-populate the EditText field. When the view loads, the hint is still displayed behind the text before it is animated to the floating label. There doesn't seem to be a method for this in Support Library's TextInputLayout. Any thoughts?

With the support design library v23 you can use:

til.setHintAnimationEnabled(false);

Here you can find the javadoc.
