Material-components-android: Question: TextInputLayout startIcon support. How to set padding between the icon and text?

[Zeliret]

There is a new option in this component: startIcon.
How to set paddings to it? Like android:drawablePadding.
The question is for both startIcon and endIcon.

Setting android:drawablePadding on the TextInputEditText wrapped by the TextInputLayout should work as expected. Does it not work for you?

[heitorcolangelo]

When passwordToggleEnabled="true" the padding on TextInputEditText does not work.

I wish I could show this icon closer to the bottom line and avoid text to overlay the icon.

We've recently made several changes to TextInputLayot. If this is still an issue, please reopen.

It's still an issue. How do I set padding on the start/end icon? @ldjcmu

[jgavazzisp]

Still an issue, also when you want to remove the padding start/end from the EditText the issue manifests itself in a different form, at this time adding extra padding to the start/end again.

[JiongBull]

please offer a attribute like 'endIconPadding(Left、Right、Top、Bottom...)'

Has this issue been resolved??

[appdev]

you can set like android:drawablePadding="-15dp"
