For my Android app I've created such layer list from two vector Drawable.
The xml-code
I want to put this image into ImageView, but I have a problem with paddings which I can't remove (marked in red).
To solve this issue I've already applied follow steps:
Explicitly set paddings to 0 value
Set "AdjustViewBound" to true
Played with "fitType" attributes.
None of this hadn't been worked for me. Please help me to resolve this problem.
You should get a whole drawable with the circle and person in one vector. But if you really need these two files to be separated, you must change the path in the XML code.
Accordingly to this
https://stackoverflow.com/a/50114171/3368784 you can resize your path by rewriting your primary_dark_color_circle.xml
as:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<vector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:width="24dp"
android:height="24dp"
android:viewportWidth="24.0"
android:viewportHeight="24.0">
<group
android:pivotX="12"
android:pivotY="12"
android:scaleX="1.2"
android:scaleY="1.2">
<path
android:fillColor="#0088CC"
android:pathData="M12,12m-10,0a10,10 0,1 1,20 0a10,10 0,1 1,-20 0" />

This is my image width and height = 125x125 and the viewport is 62x62, my problem is it's not centered, I want some help to center the path.

I have made a logo ic_launcher.xml for my android application using "New Vector Asset" and copying the vector paths from the asset into the ic_launcher_background.xml
The logo that resulted is too big and cropped. In android I see only the central part, with sides, top and bottom cut off.
I would like for the vector to be smaller so it would be visible whole in the logo.
I have tried changing these values:
android:width="24dp"
android:height="24dp"
android:viewportWidth="24.0"
android:viewportHeight="24.0"
This resulted in the logo either being even bigger with more cropped out, or smaller, but not centered.
These are the paths for the vector:
<path
android:name="light_triangle"
android:fillColor="#color/colorAccent"
android:pathData="M 0,0 L 100,0 0,100 z" />
<path
android:fillColor="#color/colorPrimary"
android:pathData="M5,13.18v4L12,21l7,-3.82v-4L12,17l-7,-3.82zM12,3L1,9l11,6 9,-4.91V17h2V9L12,3z"/>
I would like for the logo to be smaller and centered. Can I somehow move the vector after making it smaller by changing height and width, or do I have to make new vector asset that is somehow smaller and centered?
UPDATE:
I have found what has to be done. I put the vectors inside a group like this:
<group android:scaleY="0.7" android:scaleX="0.7" android:pivotY="10" android:pivotX="10">
<path
android:fillColor="#color/colorPrimary"
android:pathData="M5,13.18v4L12,21l7,-3.82v-4L12,17l-7,-3.82zM12,3L1,9l11,6 9,-4.91V17h2V9L12,3z"/>
</group>
Use vector image directly in AndroidManifest.xml file
android:icon="#drawable/work_mode"
Change the android:width and android:height values without changing the android:viewportWidth and android:viewportHeight. In this way :
android:width="16dp"
android:height="16dp"
android:viewportWidth="24.0"
android:viewportHeight="24.0"
I have found what has to be done. I put the vectors inside a group like this:
<group android:scaleY="0.7" android:scaleX="0.7" android:pivotY="10" android:pivotX="10">
<path
android:fillColor="#color/colorPrimary"
android:pathData="M5,13.18v4L12,21l7,-3.82v-4L12,17l-7,-3.82zM12,3L1,9l11,6 9,-4.91V17h2V9L12,3z"/>
</group>
For example, I have ic_chat_black_24dp.xml vector asset from Android Studio,
<vector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:width="24dp"
android:height="24dp"
android:viewportWidth="24.0"
android:viewportHeight="24.0">
<path
android:fillColor="#FF000000"
android:pathData="M20,2L4,2c-1.1,0 -1.99,0.9 -1.99,2L2,22l4,-4h14c1.1,0 2,-0.9 2,-2L22,4c0,-1.1 -0.9,-2 -2,-2zM6,9h12v2L6,11L6,9zM14,14L6,14v-2h8v2zM18,8L6,8L6,6h12v2z"/>
What I want is to have the start point M20,7 i.e. start the image 5dp down; all lines, everything. I can change the ViewportHeight to 29.0 to enhance the canvass but how do I use it?
Do I have to change each Y axis value individually or there's a faster way?
You can move the entire path by wrapping it in a <group> tag, which would look something like:
<group
android:translateY="5">
<path
...your stuff.../>
</group>
The group also allows you to change 'scale' and 'rotation' properties as listed in the documentation.
I want to move the arrow a little to the right.
You can edit your icon to move it a little to the right.
If you use Raster image, just use image editor, which you like and move it.
If you use Vector image, you can wrap your path data with group and add scale and pivot to the image:
Initial vector file:
<vector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:width="24dp"
android:height="24dp"
android:viewportHeight="24.0"
android:viewportWidth="24.0">
<path
android:fillColor="#FF000000"
android:pathData="M8,5v14l11,-7z" />
</vector>
Image moved to the right:
<vector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:width="24dp"
android:height="24dp"
android:viewportHeight="24.0"
android:viewportWidth="24.0">
<group
android:pivotX="-30"
android:scaleX="0.95"
android:scaleY="0.95">
<path
android:fillColor="#FF000000"
android:pathData="M8,5v14l11,-7z" />
</group>
</vector>
FAB now looks in a next way:
You can move your image to any side using pivotX and pivotY.
No corresponding attribute.
Only possible via editing drawables.

I'm trying to import some icons from Material Vector package in Vector Asset Studio.
But they come with padding.
Why does this happen and how can I remove it?
This is inconvenient because this means if I want my icon to be 17dp x 17dp in XML, then I need to set it more than 17x17 to make up for the padding.
Android Vector Asset
You are able to scale a vector that will remove additional space. This is possible using group tag. Just modify your vector xml file.
From
<vector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:width="24dp"
android:height="24dp"
android:viewportHeight="24.0"
android:viewportWidth="24.0">
<path
android:fillColor="#FF000000"
android:pathData="M12,4l-1.41,1.41L16.17,11H4v2h12.17l-5.58,5.59L12,20l8,-8z" />
</vector>
to
<vector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:width="24dp"
android:height="24dp"
android:viewportHeight="24.0"
android:viewportWidth="24.0">
<group
android:pivotX="12"
android:pivotY="12"
android:scaleX="1.5"
android:scaleY="1.5">
<path
android:fillColor="#FF000000"
android:pathData="M12,4l-1.41,1.41L16.17,11H4v2h12.17l-5.58,5.59L12,20l8,-8z" />
</group>
</vector>
As result
You can adjust for any "implicit" padding that may be contained within a VectorDrawables source image (.SVG, .PSD) by setting your ImageViews android:scaleType to the appropriate value so it can handle the padding that is secretly contained in the VectorDrawables source image. You will also need to set android:adjustViewBounds="true".
For example, lets say your VectorDrawable has some really annoying padding at the start of the image when you display it. You have no idea why it's there because you aren't setting any android:paddingStart on the ImageView... what you need to do is set the ImageViews android:scaleType to fitStart and android:adjustViewBounds to true.
tl;dr
Adjust your ImageViews android:scaleType to handle any "implicit" padding that is contained in your VectorDrawables source file (.SVG, .PSD). Also set android:adjustViewBounds="true".
Quick Example:
<ImageView android:id="#+id/vectorDrawable_imageView"
<!--Other ImageView settings-->
android:adjustViewBounds="true"
android:scaleType="fitStart"
app:srcCompat="#drawable/vector_with_implicit_padding_at_start"
/>
This will remove that annoying "implicit" padding that was at the start of your VectorDrawable.
Note: Adjust the android:scaleType according to your rendering needs.

</vector>
android:viewportWidth += android:translateX * 2 (padding start / end)
android:viewportHeight += android:translateY * 2 (padding top / bottom)
This padding is on some icons so that all of the icons can align properly. For example, if in that dialog, you pick ic_3d_rotation_24dp, you'll see the icon goes all the way to the edge of the bounds.
PS if you aim to have all your sizes be a multiple of 8dp, things will line up nicely and look great.
