How can I implement an outlined text field (as shown on this material design page)?
Read Outline Box
.
Outline text fields have a stroked border and are less emphasized. To use an outline text field, apply the following style to your TextInputLayout:
style="@style/Widget.MaterialComponents.TextInputLayout.OutlinedBox"
Dependencies
implementation 'com.android.support:design:28.0.0-alpha1'
XML
<android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout
android:id="@+id/name_text_input"
style="@style/Widget.MaterialComponents.TextInputLayout.OutlinedBox"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
>
<android.support.design.widget.TextInputEditText
android:id="@+id/name_edit_text"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:hint="@string/label_name" />
</android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout>
Legacy support ended in Android 28 . Now onward use
implementation 'com.google.android.material:material:1.3.0'
