I have used android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout to make a password input that allows the user to toggle readability on the password. The xml is as follows:
<android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
app:hintEnabled="false"
app:passwordToggleDrawable="@drawable/password_toggle_selector"
app:passwordToggleEnabled="true" >
<android.support.design.widget.TextInputEditText
android:id="@+id/password"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:hint="Password"
android:inputType="textPassword"/>
</android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout>
The drawable selector is as described by How to customize android passwordToggleDrawable
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item android:drawable="@drawable/password_toggle_show"
android:state_checked="true"/>
<item android:drawable="@drawable/password_toggle_hide"/>
</selector>
The issue is that the custom drawable becomes really large. Not larger than the edittext, but rather it seems to maximize its size while still fitting inside it (so, it seems to be bounded by the height of the element). However, if I leave the passwordToggleDrawable property unset, the drawable for the toggle is sized as is normal for android (I am sure you have seen the icon in other apps before). After much searching I have found a way to resize the custom one, but I am not happy with how its done (requires 2 extra xml files per drawable) and it only works for API 23+.
I have tried setting the padding of the EditText as the source of TextInputLayout says that it gets the four paddings from it and apply to the mPasswordToggleView (line 1143), but it made no change on the icon and (as expected) also affected the padding of the EditText. I have tried setting minheight to 0. I have also tried changing between EditText and TextInputEditText (using the latter now as it seems to be recommended). I have tried switching the layout_height properties to wrap_content. I have tried scaling the drawable using xml's <scale> tag with the scale properties set. I have tried similarly with the <inset> tag. But none of those methods works.
The way I found (and am currently using) to resize the drawable that actually works is by using the xml tag <layer-list>, while setting the width and height properties. Then the <selector> xml file references those resized drawables instead of the png ones. But I don't like this solution because as I mentioned it requires API 23 and because of that results in a total of 4 extra xml files. It also sets the width and height by themselves, instead of keeping the ratio locked.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<layer-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item
android:drawable="@drawable/password_toggle_hide"
android:width="22dp"
android:height="15dp"/>
</layer-list>
TL;DR How do I set the size of a custom passwordToggleDrawable in TextInputLayout? Preferably to same size as the default drawable.
I were unable to find any solution to the question I actually asked, but I decided to instead solve the issue by disregarding the "in InputTextLayout" part of the question and implemented my own version of the class.
Mostly it is just a copy of InputTextLayout (sadly that class doesnt translate well for subclassing as everything is private) but with most of the stuff I dont need removed, and more importantly, with the CheckableImageButton mPasswordToggleView changed to a ViewGroup containing a View.
The ViewGroup is the clickable button, and handles setMinimumDimensions to keep the clickable area at min 48 dp, like the original did through design_text_input_password_icon.xml. This also makes small drawables not hug the right side of the screen as they are centered in the clickable area, giving the margin that the default drawable appears to have.
The View (or more precisely, a new subclass of it I called CheckableView) is the actual drawable (setBackground()), replacing the CheckableImageButton as the container of the drawable that lets it switch based on state_checked selector.
The xml-property passwordToggleSize allows a dimension to be set, which is used to scale the drawable. I opted to only have one value instead of width&height, and the drawable scales with its ratio locked such that its greatest dimension matches the dimension specified. I made the default size 24dp, as is specified for the default-drawable in design_ic_visibility.xml.
