Android TextView drawable, change padding between drawable and text?
In XML:
android:drawablePadding = paddingValueor
Programmatically:
TextView txt;txt.setCompoundDrawablePadding(paddingValue)android:drawablePadding is the easiest way to give padding to the drawable icon but you can not give specific one side padding like paddingRight or paddingLeft of the drawable icon. This gives padding to either side of the drawable.
<Button android:id="@+id/otherapps" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent" android:background="@drawable/btn_background" android:text="@string/other_apps" android:layout_weight="1" android:fontFamily="cursive" android:layout_marginBottom="10dp" android:drawableLeft="@drawable/ic_more" android:paddingLeft="8dp" //for drawable padding to the left android:textColor="@android:color/holo_red_light" />`enter code here`
