Android Labels or Bubbles in EditText

Question

Can someone please point me in the right direction how to do those bubbles or labels in

Answer 1

To set the circle icon in the left of the EditText you can change the leftDrawable.

You can do it on the layout xml file android:drawableRight="@drawable/search_icon" or programmatically using the setCompoundDrawablesWithIntrinsicBounds function.

If you also want to give the bubble style, you must change the backgroud drawable by a 9-patch that have the style. here you have a tutorial for a 9-patch bubble for google maps.

Hope it helped! :)
