I have used TextInputLayout to an EditText and there is a TextView just below to it. I see there is an extra space between TextInputLayout and TextView. I want to remove that extra space. Pics attached with and without TextInputLayout. I have enabled boundaries in developer options so pic may look confusing but informative.
Below is the layout:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical">
<android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout

<TextView
android:id="#+id/textForgotPassword"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"

android:clickable="true"
android:text="#string/forgot_password"
android:textSize="17sp" />
</LinearLayout>
There is a known issue with TextInputLayout which displays additional padding once an error is displayed and isn't removed when the error is cleared or setErrorEnabled(false) is called.
https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=200137
A workaround for this issue is to manually hide the bottom child layout when the error is cleared:
textInputLayout.setError(null);
if (textInputLayout.getChildCount() == 2)
textInputLayout.getChildAt(1).setVisibility(View.GONE);
Looks like this is not extra space, but just the bottom half of the TextInputLayout widget. I don't have your background resource, but this is essentially what your code looks like on my device. You could try the EditText without putting it inside a TextInputLayout widget if you want, and then you wouldn't have the extra space on the bottom or top.

Try this
android:layout_alignStart="#id/layoutCurrentPW"

I have some trouble with a TextInputEditText and his hint message if I use the last material library version com.google.android.material:material:1.2.0-alpha02 .. I set 5 lines scrollable textInputEditText and I want to show the hint message align to top margin of that text input. On layout editor appears in the correct position, but when I run the app the position is vertical centered. Why ?
Instead i'm not encounter this problem with com.google.android.material:material:1.1.0-beta02

And this is two screenshot, one of the layout editor with hint in correct position and other is an app screenshot:
enter code here
You can use
android:gravity="top|start"
property in your EditText of the address block and it shall act as the container's underlying controlling property and take the hint to top left corner.
Add android:gravity="top|start" to the EditText in the layout XML file.
Add this code in your EditText / TextInputEditText:
android:gravity="top|start"
I faced the same problem.
I tried to remove the inputType attribute
and the height of edit text becomes now dependent on the lines attribute.
Then my problem is solved
I would like to place a Switch right of a TextInputLayout, with match_parent parameters on the TextInput and a margin.
Placing the switch to the left seems to work, however it is hidden when placing it to the right.
See the two images below:
As you can see the switch places itself wrongly.
Here is my XML code. The main layout is a CoordinatorLayout:
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical">
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Social Networks"
android:textAppearance="#style/Base.TextAppearance.AppCompat.Medium"
android:textColor="#color/colorPrimary"
android:textStyle="bold" />
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout
style="#style/Widget.MaterialComponents.TextInputLayout.OutlinedBox"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginEnd="40dp">
<android.support.design.widget.TextInputEditText
android:id="#+id/myprofile_google"
android:inputType="textEmailAddress"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:textColor="#color/blue_grey_800"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:hint="Google +" />
</android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout>
<Switch
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="30dp"
android:layout_gravity="center_vertical"/>
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
Change the layout_width of your TextInputLayout to 0dp, and add this attribute to it as well:
android:layout_weight="1"
What's happening right now is that your TextInputLayout has a width of match_parent. What this will do is fill the entire remaining space of the parent (this is somewhat unique to LinearLayout). When your Switch is on the left, it gets enough space for it and then the TextInputLayout takes up the rest. However, when the Switch is on the right, the TextInputLayout takes up all the space first!
Using weight instead will make sure that other components get the space they need before the weighted component gets the extra space.
You're missing two bits in your XML.
Firstly, the orientation on your linear layout containing both your input layout and switch. Secondly, use weighting to show both items as you've specified that the text input layout should match the parent (fill the view width in this case).
This layout produces your desired output:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical">
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Social Networks"
android:textAppearance="#style/Base.TextAppearance.AppCompat.Medium"
android:textColor="#color/colorPrimary"
android:textStyle="bold" />
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_marginEnd="40dp">
<android.support.design.widget.TextInputEditText
android:id="#+id/myprofile_google"
android:inputType="textEmailAddress"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:textColor="#android:color/holo_red_dark"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:hint="Google +" />
</android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout>
<Switch
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="30dp"
android:layout_gravity="center_vertical"/>
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
I would suggest you use RelativeLayout instead of LinearLayout, or even better redo the whole layout in a ConstraintLayout.
The RelativeLayout implementation would probably be something like this
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout
style="#style/Widget.MaterialComponents.TextInputLayout.OutlinedBox"
android:id="#+id/textInputLayout"
android:layout_toStartOf="#+id/switch"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginEnd="40dp">
<android.support.design.widget.TextInputEditText
android:id="#+id/myprofile_google"
android:inputType="textEmailAddress"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:textColor="#color/blue_grey_800"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:hint="Google +" />
</android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout>
<Switch
android:id="#+id/switch"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="30dp"
android:layout_alignParentEnd="true"
android:layout_gravity="center_vertical"/>
</LinearLayout>
My interface looks like this:
XML:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

</FrameLayout>
Now, you can see at the bottom there is I am here to.... This is a dropdown and when I choose one of the options, my code dynamically adds a few views to the hierarchy but the problem is they are not visible(not all of them; just I am a... is visible.)
I checked the layout hierarchy through the Layout inspector and turns out that the hierarchy is alive but the floating button(Create Account) has overshadowed it.
Now, I know if I were to replace the root FrameLayout with a LinearLayout, it would be visible but the problem is that if then I would click on a EditText button, the keypad would cover the screen with the Create Account button as covered too. I actually want this button to be on the screen at all times.
Does anyone how can I get around this problem?
Your layout is not totally correct because your floating button hides the bottom of your ScrollView all the time. You should replace the FrameLayout with a vertical LinearLayout (just like you said) and then specify the window behavior of your activity when the soft keyboard pops up with the windowSoftInputMode attribute in your activity element on the AndroidManifest.xml file. If you use android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize", the window will resize accordingly and the button should be always visible.
I am trying to design EditText for password with show password imageView. However I cannot design it correctly beacuse I cannot see ImageView, since EditText's layout_width="fill_parent". When I change it to wrap_content, I can see my ImageView but then it looks very bad in UI. Is it possible to design it without giving fixed size?
Here is my code;
<android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginTop="8dp"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:layout_marginBottom="8dp">
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:orientation="horizontal">
<EditText
android:id="#+id/registerPassword"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:hint="#string/register_password"
android:inputType="textPassword" />
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/fragment_login_password_visibility"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:src="#android:drawable/ic_partial_secure"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:clickable="true"/>
</LinearLayout>
</android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout>
EDIT:
android:layout_weight=1 solved issue. Now I can see ImageView left of EditText. However now, I TextInputLayout hint is not working.
You don't need use ImageView.
Support Library adds support for the password visibility toggle in recent update (revision 24.2.0 - August 2016).
try it:
setPasswordVisibilityToggleDrawable(int resId)
Set the icon to use for the password visibility toggle button.
https://developer.android.com/reference/android/support/design/widget/TextInputLayout.html
First set android:weightSum of LinearLayout to "1". Then, set android:layout_width and android:layout_weight of EditText to "0dp" and "1", respectively.
Did you try to use weight?
android:layout_weight="1"
and
android:layout_width="0dp" or android:layout_width="wrap_content"
<android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginTop="8dp"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:layout_marginBottom="8dp">
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:orientation="horizontal">
<EditText
android:id="#+id/registerPassword"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:hint="#string/register_password"
android:inputType="textPassword" />
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/fragment_login_password_visibility"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:src="#android:drawable/ic_partial_secure"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:clickable="true"/>
</LinearLayout>
</android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout>
Try this :
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="horizontal">
<EditText
android:id="#+id/editText"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:hint="Password"
android:singleLine="true"
android:textSize="25sp"
android:paddingRight="60dp"
/>
<ImageButton
android:id="#+id/showpass"
android:layout_marginLeft="-60dp"
style="?android:buttonBarButtonStyle"
android:paddingBottom="5dp"
android:src="#drawable/pass_ic"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
</LinearLayout>
I recommend using a TextInputLayout with passwordToggleDrawable .
<android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout
android:id="#+id/textInputPasswordLayout"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
app:passwordToggleContentDescription="Show"
app:passwordToggleDrawable="#drawable/ic_password_visibility_selector"
app:passwordToggleEnabled="true">
<android.support.design.widget.TextInputEditText
android:id="#+id/textInputEditTextPassword"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:ems="10"
android:fontFamily="sans-serif-light"
android:gravity="bottom"
android:hint="#string/enter_your_password"/>
</android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout>
app:passwordToggleDrawable="#drawable/ic_password_visibility_selector" assign your drawable
I have a layout where I have RelativeLayout with some Edittext which use the default style and are baseline aligned with some Textfield. The issue is the Edittext are losing the default Holo Light style line (the line under the text). If I take out the baseline then the line is shown though, of course, the Edittext loses the alignment.
I suspect this is bug or at least a very strange behavior, but I will give it a try by asking here in SO :-)
This is how it looks (Edittexts are the blank spaces to the right of Opens and Closes TextViews):
This is my layout:

</LinearLayout>
My guess is the containing RelativeLayout somehow isn't expanding to allow for the lines on the EditTexts to show.
Change the containing RelativeLayout to:
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="100dp">
I realise this may not be the best solution but it's a start. Another option might be to try using alignParentBottom instead of baseline on all the "bottom" row elements.
