How to add colored border on cardview?

Question

I am new to Android and this is my first question here.

I am trying to add a colored vertical border at the beginning of the cardview. How can I achieve it on xml ?

Answer 1

try doing:

this removes the padding from the cardview and adds a FrameLayout with a color. You then need to fix the padding in the LinearLayout then for the other fields

Update

If you want to preserve the card corner radius create card_edge.xml in drawable folder:

and in the frame layout use android:background="@drawable/card_edge"
