PreferenceCategory use "iconSpaceReserved" not work

[tcqq]

I tried using "iconSpaceReserved" into "PreferenceCategory", but it did not work.

How to create "PreferenceCategory with picture red box same effect?

Yeah, it wouldn't work because the categories has no icons. I'll see if the padding can be implemented though.

Ok.

Hi, is this problem now supported?

[gregkorossy]

It is automatically supported by the support lib v28.0.0-alpha3 (and thus v28.0.0.0-alpha3 of this lib too).

[gregkorossy]

PreferenceCategory still does not support the iconSpaceReserved attribute properly. Reported the issue to Google: https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/111662669. This library will provide a temporary fix for the AndroidX version in the unreserved-way (meaning that icon space reservation won't be forced on smaller screen devices, thus, only the false value should be used, if needed at all).

[gregkorossy]

The AndroidX version's v1.0.0-alpha2 contains the temporary fix.

[gregkorossy]

The reported issue says it was fixed, however, the official lib v1.0.0 still doesn't contain the fixes, so this lib keeps providing the bug fix.

@Gericop Thanks for providing the fix. Currently, our app doesn't use AndroidX. But, we do use Android Architecture Component in the following way.

def lifecycle_version = "1.1.1"
// ViewModel and LiveData
implementation "android.arch.lifecycle:extensions:$lifecycle_version"
// alternately - if using Java8, use the following instead of compiler
implementation "android.arch.lifecycle:common-java8:$lifecycle_version"

def room_version = "1.1.1"
implementation "android.arch.persistence.room:runtime:$room_version"
annotationProcessor "android.arch.persistence.room:compiler:$room_version"

def work_version = "1.0.0-alpha09"
implementation "android.arch.work:work-runtime:$work_version" // use -ktx for Kotlin
// optional - Firebase JobDispatcher support
implementation "android.arch.work:work-firebase:$work_version"

Your implementation 'com.takisoft.fix:preference-v7:28.0.0.0' works well for us except Google breaks app:iconSpaceReserved="false" in PreferenceCategory.

Is it suitable for us to use your The AndroidX version's v1.0.0-alpha2 for our case, or can the temporary fix on PreferenceCategory can be carry forward to v7:28.0.0.0?

Thank you very much.
