[FIXED] Android, why does app:boxStrokeColor in android material textinputlayout doesn't work?

Issue

I want to change the color of Material TextInputLayout stroke, but apparently it doesn't seem to work with app:boxStrokeColor. Any suggestions?

Solution

If attribute boxStrokeColor is not a color state list but only a single color, its value will be applied only to the box's focus state.

You should define a selector:

<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <item android:color="@color/orange" android:state_focused="true"/>
    <item android:color="@color/...." android:state_hovered="true"/>
    <item android:color="@color/...." android:state_enabled="false"/>
    <item android:color="@color/...."/>
</selector>

and then apply it to the boxStrokeColor attribute:

<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout
       app:boxStrokeColor="@color/selector"
       ...>
