[MaterialDatePicker] Theme override is not applied to Text Fields in Text Entry Mode

[froriz5]

Description: Full description of issue here When instantiating a MaterialDatePicker using the Builder, one of the params is a theme override called setTheme(...)

Here, we can modify how to theme the view with different colors.

It looks like this component uses colorPrimary for almost all the theming.

However, it looks like the TextInputLayout used by the Text Entry mode when selecting a date ignores the colorPrimary value passed in the builder.

Current Behavior

In this current behavior, the AppTheme has a colorPrimary set to a white value.

Expected behavior: The override theme's colorPrimary should be used instead of the app theme's colorPrimary attribute.

Source code: Example style:

<style name="CustomCalendarDatePickerTheme" parent="@style/ThemeOverlay.MaterialComponents.MaterialCalendar">
    <item name="colorPrimary">@color/colorPrimary</item> <!-- #ff364141 -->
</style>

In the code:

val builder = MaterialDatePicker.Builder.dateRangePicker().apply {
     setTitleText("Title")
     setTheme(R.style.CustomCalendarDatePickerTheme)
}.build()

builder.show(supportFragmentManager, "")

I am having similar issue. Setting theme with style for

• item materialCalendarHeaderLayout - works
• item textInputStyle - does not work

Instead of taking style from the theme given in builder it takes textInputStyle style from application, so it ignores given theme and uses same styling as all other textInputs within application. Meanwhile it takes correct style values given for header, even it is within same style set to the builder.
