[TextInputLayout] Hint text overlaps outline
Description: outlinedbox crossed hint on android 4 screenshot
Expected behavior: Hint is displayed without overlapping with the box.
Source code: https://github.com/ivan200/Overlap
just simple app with Theme.Material3.Light theme
Minimal sample app repro: Create new emulator -> Nexus 4 -> x86 Images -> Api 16 (without google api), run app (my emulator settings here )
Android API version: 16
Material Library version: com.google.android.material:material:1.6.1
Device: Emulator api 16
ps. also, TextInputLayout somehow ignores my set margins?
pps. if i just add marginstart and marginend (32dp) to TextInputEditText in this sample app, it also broke hint on Android 6 (Pixel2_api23 Emulator)
sorry i have only device with android 4.3 (api 18) and hint there fine
tested on different emulators: api 15 broken line, broken margin api 16 broken line, broken margin api 17 broken line api 18 all fine
in manifest of this lib android:minSdkVersion="14"
so, i think bug is still there
Great thank you so much for helping spot the issue! : )
Will try to find some time to work on this.
hey sorry I'm pretty occupied these days. Will try to find some time to fix this before 1.8 is released.
@drchen Can the issue be worked around somehow, without patching the source code?
I can't think of a good way to do that. It's deep into the background drawable drawing logic....
@drchen Feared as much, guess i can't upgrade to higher than 1.4.0, as it seems the bug snuck in way back in 1.5.0.
yeah I'm sorry for that we didn't notice the issue on lower APIs sooner. It's somehow not uncovered by our screenshot tests. : (
