When I use cardUseCompatPadding to show shadow in my card view, top padding is bigger than left one. How to make both padding equal, because my ribbon looking not beautiful, it's bigger on top? Thanks.

Taken from the documentation:
This may cause Cards to have different sizes between Lollipop and
before Lollipop. If you need to align CardView with other Views, you
may need api version specific dimension resources to account for the
changes. As an alternative, you can set this flag to true and CardView
will add the same padding values on platforms Lollipop and after.
Next, you can add the indentation you need by using the margin attribute
example.xml:
<FrameLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:card_view="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="#2861">
<FrameLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<android.support.v7.widget.CardView
android:id="@+id/item_container"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginBottom="1dp"
android:layout_marginEnd="2dp"
android:layout_marginStart="2dp"
android:layout_marginTop="1dp"
android:clickable="true"
android:focusable="true"
android:foreground="?attr/selectableItemBackground"
card_view:cardBackgroundColor="@android:color/white"
card_view:cardCornerRadius="4dp"
card_view:cardElevation="2dp"
card_view:cardPreventCornerOverlap="false"
card_view:cardUseCompatPadding="true">
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="130dp"
android:animateLayoutChanges="true"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:weightSum="3">

</FrameLayout>
Now it looks great on different versions of the API.

In your project, you can use these settings for both CardView and FrameLayout (ribbon) to achieve the desired result.

increased indentation
You can't fix this. When cardUseCompatPadding
flag is set, these methods are used to calculate padding on all API levels:
final static float SHADOW_MULTIPLIER = 1.5f;
static float calculateVerticalPadding(float maxShadowSize, float cornerRadius, addPaddingForCorners) {
if (addPaddingForCorners) {
return (float) (maxShadowSize * SHADOW_MULTIPLIER + (1 - COS_45) * cornerRadius);
} else {
return maxShadowSize * SHADOW_MULTIPLIER;
}
}
static float calculateHorizontalPadding(float maxShadowSize, float cornerRadius, boolean addPaddingForCorners) {
if (addPaddingForCorners) {
return (float) (maxShadowSize + (1 - COS_45) * cornerRadius);
} else {
return maxShadowSize;
}
}
addPaddingForCorners
is true when you use card_view:cardPreventCornerOverlap="true"
.
Perhaps setting some layout_marginTop
on ribbon_main
and ribbon_parts
will give you the desired effect?
This is working for me, may be it would work for you too:
float cardelevation = cardView.getMaxCardElevation();
float cardradius = cardView.getRadius();
double cardcos = Math.cos(Math.toRadians(45));
int horizontalPadding = (int) (cardelevation + (1 - cardcos ) * cardradius);
int verticalPadding = (int) (cardelevation * 1.5 + (1 - cardcos ) * cardradius);
Thank You.
