Elevation not working

[iMJ007]

The elevation on any of the view is not working. no matter if height/wifth is set to wrap_content or match_parent or a specific size. It just shows small box of shadow on top left of the view when trying to set elevation.

Here is the image as shown in android studio preview.

The elevation shadow is completely invisible when run on device.

elevation often displays on view's margin

and you should use "clipToPadding=false"

I even used clipToPadding="false" but still it shows just that small square on top and not a proper shadow and the issue is with all all shapes bubble, triangle, roundedSquare..

here's the xml code of my view

<com.github.florent37.shapeofview.shapes.BubbleView
            android:id="@+id/color_palette_container"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:visibility="visible"
            android:elevation="12dp"
            android:layout_below="@id/current_color_container"
            android:layout_alignStart="@id/current_color_container"
            android:layout_marginStart="-48dp"
            android:layout_marginTop="4dp"
            android:clipToPadding="false"
            app:shape_bubble_arrowPosition="top"
            app:shape_bubble_borderRadius="16dp">

            <GridLayout
                android:layout_width="wrap_content"
                android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                android:background="#FFFFFF"
                android:columnCount="2"
                android:elevation="8dp"
                android:padding="16dp">
