I recently upgraded Android Design library from 24.2.1 to 25.0.0. After this the "drawableX" feature in EditText doesn't work.
EDIT 01.11: I learned that setting drawable in xml works if you use android:drawableStart instead of android:drawableLeft. But setting setting drawables programatically does not work. I use this to make a "Clear"-button to empty the EditText. But this feature is broken now. I would appreciate any work-arounds or knowledge about if this is intentional from Google or a bug!
My code for Clearable edit-text that worked before but doesn't now:
public class ClearableErrorTextInputEditText extends ErrorTextInputEditText implements View.OnFocusChangeListener, View.OnTouchListener, TextWatcher {
private Drawable resIcon;
private OnFocusChangeListener childFocusListener;
public ClearableErrorTextInputEditText(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyle) {
super(context, attrs, defStyle);
setup();
}
public ClearableErrorTextInputEditText(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
super(context, attrs);
setup();
}
public ClearableErrorTextInputEditText(Context context) {
super(context);
setup();
}
@Override
public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {
if (event.getAction() == MotionEvent.ACTION_UP) {
if (getCompoundDrawables()[2] != null) {
final boolean tappedClose = event.getX() > (getWidth() - getPaddingRight() - resIcon.getIntrinsicWidth());
if (tappedClose) {
setText("");
return false; // true will fail on emulator running 2.1 and physical keyboard / scroll wheel
}
}
}
return false;
}
@Override
public void setOnFocusChangeListener(OnFocusChangeListener l) {
childFocusListener = l;
}
@Override
public void onFocusChange(View v, boolean hasFocus) {
setClearIconVisible(hasFocus && getText().length() > 0);
if (childFocusListener!=null){
childFocusListener.onFocusChange(v, hasFocus);
}
}
@Override
public void onTextChanged(CharSequence s, int start, int before, int count){
super.onTextChanged(s, start, before, count);
setClearIconVisible(isFocused() && s.length() > 0);
}
@Override
public void beforeTextChanged(CharSequence s, int start, int count, int after) {} // not interesting
@Override
public void afterTextChanged(Editable s) {} // // not interesting
private void setup() {
if(isInEditMode()){
return;
}
resIcon = getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.ic_clear, null);
resIcon.setBounds(0, 0, resIcon.getIntrinsicWidth(), resIcon.getIntrinsicHeight());
setClearIconVisible(false);
super.setOnTouchListener(this);
super.setOnFocusChangeListener(this);
addTextChangedListener(this);
}
private void setClearIconVisible(final boolean visible){
final Drawable icon = visible ? resIcon : null;
setCompoundDrawables(getCompoundDrawables()[0],
getCompoundDrawables()[1], icon, getCompoundDrawables()[3]);
}
