TextInputLayout - Hint padding issue

I am using textInputLayout in my application, but I am getting additional padding to the Hint. Can anyone help me out.
Screenshot:
Xml Code:
<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout
style="#style/Widget.MaterialComponents.TextInputLayout.OutlinedBox"
android:id="#+id/outlined_member_name_text_field"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginStart="16dp"
android:layout_marginTop="8dp"
android:layout_marginEnd="16dp"
android:hint="#string/name"
app:startIconDrawable="#drawable/ic_baseline_person_24"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toBottomOf="#id/select_contact_button">
<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputEditText
android:id="#+id/member_name_text"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:inputType="textCapSentences|text" />
</com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout>

You can add -ve padding to TextInputEditText, it should solve the extra padding issue that you have. For example I have used -10dp you can check what fits your case.
<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout
style="#style/Widget.MaterialComponents.TextInputLayout.OutlinedBox"
android:id="#+id/outlined_member_name_text_field"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginStart="16dp"
android:layout_marginTop="8dp"
android:layout_marginEnd="16dp"
android:hint="#string/name"
app:startIconDrawable="#drawable/ic_baseline_person_24"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toBottomOf="#id/select_contact_button">
<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputEditText
android:id="#+id/member_name_text"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:drawablePadding="-10dp"
android:inputType="textCapSentences|text" />
</com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout>

Using Image in Android studio "startIconDrawable" is showing grey

I am setting a an icon in material TextInputLayout but the icon is showing as grey not its original color(Shown in the image below). Using the same icon image in a Image View is showing colors. I have searched a lot and haven't found any solutions.
Any help will be great. Thanks in advance.
XML for the TextInputLayout :-
<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout
android:id="#+id/country"
style="#style/Widget.MaterialComponents.TextInputLayout.OutlinedBox"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:hint="#string/country"
app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="parent"
app:startIconDrawable="#drawable/flag"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
android:layout_margin="10dp">
<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputEditText
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="+91"
android:enabled="false"/>
</com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout>

Simply add this line to your xml TextinputLayout Xml file
app:startIconTint="#null"
<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout
android:id="#+id/country"
style="#style/Widget.MaterialComponents.TextInputLayout.OutlinedBox"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_margin="10dp"
android:hint="کشور"
app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent"
app:startIconDrawable="#drawable/blue_cheese"
app:startIconTint="#null">
<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputEditText
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:enabled="false"
android:text="+91" />
</com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout>

Animation in Android EditText Android

I am trying to create an animated TextInput layout for my login page but I cant't make it work.
below are the pictures of what I am trying to do:
image when you arrive on the login page:
when you start typing the email, the line length should decrease when email address is typed, the more you type the smaller the line became.
Here is the layout I have created but it's not working.
<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout
android:id="#+id/email_layout"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent"
android:background="#color/transparent"
android:textAllCaps="true"
android:textColorHint="#color/gainsboro_00"
android:textColor="#color/gainsboro_00"
android:hint="#string/email">
<androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="#color/transparent">
<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputEditText
android:id="#+id/email_et"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:inputType="textEmailAddress"
android:textColor="#color/gainsboro_00"
android:background="#color/transparent"
android:minWidth="75dp"
android:textSize="14sp"
android:textAllCaps="true"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="parent" />
<View
android:id="#+id/email_line"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="10dp"
android:background="#drawable/checkered_gainsboro_background"
android:layout_marginEnd="45dp"
app:layout_constraintStart_toEndOf="#id/email_et"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="parent"/>
</androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout>
</com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout>
Any idea how to achieve this? I think I am not far from the solution
Thanks

You don't need ConstraintLayout and View elements inside TextInputLayout.
Documentation is here: https://material.io/components/text-fields/android#using-text-fields

Material Design provides you instant EditText with Animation. You simply need to change the style of the TextInputLayout as shown below in the code.
Here is the code you can use as per your requirements.
<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout
style="#style/Widget.MaterialComponents.TextInputLayout.FilledBox"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:hint="#string/enter_your_email_id"
app:endIconMode="clear_text"
android:id="#+id/edtEmailID"
android:background="#color/colorWhite"
android:layout_below="#id/welcomeText"
app:endIconTint="#000"
android:layout_marginTop="25dp"
app:errorEnabled="true"
android:layout_alignParentStart="true"
android:layout_alignParentEnd="true"
app:hintTextColor="#000">
<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputEditText
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:id="#+id/editEmailIn"
android:inputType="text"
android:background="#color/colorWhite"
android:textColor="#000" />
</com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout>

How to show border on TextInputLayout in Android

In my application I want use TextInputLayout and I want set border for this view.
Such as this image : Image
I write below codes :
<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout
android:id="#+id/loginFrag_phoneInputLayout"
style="#style/Widget.MaterialComponents.TextInputLayout.OutlinedBox"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginStart="#dimen/_15mdp"
android:layout_marginLeft="#dimen/_15mdp"
android:layout_marginTop="#dimen/_15mdp"
android:layout_marginEnd="#dimen/_15mdp"
android:layout_marginRight="#dimen/_15mdp"
android:hint="#string/insertYourPhoneNumber"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toBottomOf="#+id/loginFrag_title">
<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputEditText
android:id="#+id/signInFrag_phoneEdt"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#android:color/transparent"
android:gravity="right|center_vertical"
android:inputType="phone"
android:maxLength="11"
android:maxLines="1"
android:paddingLeft="#dimen/_10mdp"
android:paddingRight="#dimen/_10mdp"
android:singleLine="true"
android:textColorHint="#color/colorLightGray"
android:textSize="#dimen/_10mdp"
app:drawableRightCompat="#drawable/ic_phone" />
</com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout>
I added this line :
style="#style/Widget.MaterialComponents.TextInputLayout.OutlinedBox"
But when update material design library to v1.3 not show me any border!
'com.google.android.material:material:1.3.0'
But in v1.2 or v1.1 show me border and not any problem!
Why not show border in v1.3 ?
How can I fix it?

You have to remove the background android:background="#android:color/transparent" in the TextInputEditText.
Also don't use app:drawableRightCompat="#drawable/...." in the TextInputEditText but use:
<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout
style="#style/Widget.MaterialComponents.TextInputLayout.OutlinedBox"
app:endIconDrawable="#drawable/..."
app:endIconMode="custom"

I am also using v 1.3.0 and getting correct border using below code:
<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout
android:id="#+id/loginFrag_phoneInputLayout"
style="#style/Widget.MaterialComponents.TextInputLayout.OutlinedBox"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginStart="10dp"
android:layout_marginLeft="10dp"
android:layout_marginTop="10dp"
android:layout_marginEnd="10dp"
android:layout_marginRight="10dp"
android:hint="Phone Number"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent"
app:startIconDrawable="#drawable/ic_action_phone"
>
<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputEditText
android:id="#+id/signInFrag_phoneEdt"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:inputType="phone"
android:maxLength="11"
android:maxLines="1"
android:paddingLeft="10dp"
android:paddingRight="10dp"
android:singleLine="true"/>
</com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout>

I am trying to make AutoCompleteTextView look like a material Edittext

I am trying to make AutoCompleteTextView look like this image https://ibb.co/ZJxmgK5 but unable to do the same. The outlined box is not visible in the result
Below is my current code. Earlier I tried adding an EditText in TextInputLayout but now I want to add Autocomplete in this.
<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout
android:id="#+id/input_layout_holiday_destination"
style="#style/Widget.MaterialComponents.TextInputLayout.OutlinedBox"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:hint="#string/lbl_destination_big">
<AutoCompleteTextView
android:id="#+id/edittext_holiday_destination"
style="#style/Base.Widget.AppCompat.EditText"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center_vertical"
android:layout_weight="10"
android:background="#android:color/transparent"
android:hint="#string/lbl_destination"
android:layout_marginLeft="#dimen/margin8"
android:singleLine="true"
android:lines="1"
android:textSize="25sp"
android:nextFocusDown="#+id/txv_holiday_num_of_nights"
android:imeOptions="actionNext"
android:textCursorDrawable="#drawable/edittext_cursor_drawable"/>
/>
</com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout>
The expected result is the image for which the URL has been given above.

If you would like to have a TextInputLayout in conjuction with an AutoCompleteTextView you should use this style for the TextInputLayout Widget.MaterialComponents.TextInputLayout.*.ExposedDropdownMenu.
In your case:
style="#style/Widget.MaterialComponents.TextInputLayout.OutlinedBox.ExposedDropdownMenu"
Use something like:
<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout
android:id="#+id/name_text_input"
style="#style/Widget.MaterialComponents.TextInputLayout.OutlinedBox.ExposedDropdownMenu"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:hint="HINT TEXT">
<AutoCompleteTextView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#null"/>
</com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout>
Check also the doc:
Note: When using an outlined text field with an EditText child that is not a TextInputEditText, make sure to set the EditText's android:background to #null. This allows TextInputLayout to set an outline background on the EditText.
If you would like to avoid the dropdown icon just use the app:endIconMode attribute.
<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout
app:endIconMode="none"
...>

Below code solves the problem:
<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout
android:id="#+id/input_layout_holiday_destination"
style="#style/Widget.MaterialComponents.TextInputLayout.OutlinedBox"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:hint="#string/lbl_destination_big">
<androidx.appcompat.widget.AppCompatAutoCompleteTextView
android:id="#+id/edittext_holiday_destination"
style="#style/Widget.MaterialComponents.AutoCompleteTextView.OutlinedBox"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center_vertical"
android:singleLine="true"
android:lines="1"
android:nextFocusDown="#+id/txv_holiday_num_of_nights"
android:imeOptions="actionNext"
android:textCursorDrawable="#drawable/edittext_cursor_drawable"
/>
</com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout>

<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout
android:id="#+id/input_layout_holiday_destination"
style="#style/Widget.MaterialComponents.TextInputLayout.OutlinedBox"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<AutoCompleteTextView
android:id="#+id/edittext_holiday_destination"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:hint="Destination"
android:layout_weight="10"
android:singleLine="true"
android:lines="1"
android:textSize="25sp"
android:layout_gravity="center_vertical"
android:layout_marginLeft="8dp"
tools:text="Hello" />
/>
</com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout>
This works. The problem was with the background color that you were setting to the AutoCompleteTextView.

finally my answer is this
<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout
android:id="#+id/uomLay"
android:layout_width="0dp"
app:layout_constraintTop_toBottomOf="#id/quantity_lay"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="#id/start2"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="#id/end2"
style="#style/OutlineBoxDropDown"
app:endIconDrawable="#drawable/ic_path_16692"
app:shapeAppearance="#style/Rounded"
app:hintTextAppearance="#style/hintTextAppearence"
android:layout_marginTop="#dimen/_13sdp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<AutoCompleteTextView
android:id="#+id/uom"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:fontFamily="#font/graphikregular"
android:hint="UOM"
style="#style/Widget.MaterialComponents.AutoCompleteTextView.OutlinedBox"
android:background="#null"
android:paddingVertical="#dimen/_7sdp"
android:textColor="#color/desc_color"
android:textSize="#dimen/_11ssp"
tools:text="kg" />
</com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout>
