I was working on a design that requires all views has an alignment to left.
I'm using TextInputLayout
&& TextInputEditText
there was spaces for hint
& text
that are solved by setting padding
to 0dp
for TextInputEditText
but, I'm stuck in removing padding/margin start
for the bottom line of TextInputEditText
.
so, can anyone help me with that simple issues, please?
actual, what I need to do is remove the space at the start of TextInputEditText
so bottom line be aligned to left like E
this is my XML
<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout
android:id="@+id/email"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:paddingTop="@dimen/_5sdp"
android:paddingBottom="@dimen/_5sdp"
app:endIconDrawable="@mipmap/clear_email"
app:endIconMode="clear_text"
app:endIconTint="@color/grey"
app:errorEnabled="true"
app:hintEnabled="false">
<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputEditText
android:id="@+id/test"
style="@style/TILStyle"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:fontFamily="@font/opensans_regular"
android:hint="@string/enter_email_address"
android:importantForAutofill="no"
android:inputType="textEmailAddress"
android:theme="@style/Theme.App.Base"
app:hintTextAppearance="@style/TextLabel" />
</com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout>
for the styles used: TILStyle
<style name="TILStyle">
<item name="android:lines">1</item>
<item name="android:singleLine">true</item>
<item name="android:gravity">start</item>
<item name="android:textAlignment">viewStart</item>
<item name="android:paddingEnd">0dp</item>
<item name="android:paddingStart">0dp</item>
<item name="android:paddingBottom">@dimen/_12sdp</item>
</style>
Theme.App.Base
<style name="Theme.App.Base" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar">
<item name="colorControlNormal">@color/grey_line</item>
<item name="colorControlActivated">@color/grey_line</item>
<item name="colorControlHighlight">@color/grey_line</item>
</style>
TextLabel
<style name="TextLabel" parent="TextAppearance.Design.Hint">
<item name="android:textSize">16sp</item>
<item name="android:paddingBottom">@dimen/_18sdp</item>
</style>
after long of search and debugging, I found that the issue in these two lines
<item name="android:paddingEnd">0dp</item>
<item name="android:paddingStart">0dp</item>
after deleting them it's solved.
it looks like that there is a default value for it, but I don't know how much are they but, that solved my issue.
if anyone knows the default values please leave a comment.
