EditText attribute attribute does not work the same for API 19 and 21

Question

I connect screen capture using both 19 and 21 emulators:

On the left is Android 19, and on the right is 21. As you can see, the emulator based on API 19 does not take into account the add-on attribute. The same thing happens on the 4.4.x device, so this is not only a problem with the emulator.

This is the .xml code I'm using for this action:

<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
tools:context="com.birsan.cardbox.FolderScreen">

<ImageView
    android:id="@+id/magnifying_glass_icon"
    android:layout_width="20dp"
    android:layout_height="20dp"
    android:layout_alignBottom="@+id/search_button"
    android:layout_alignLeft="@+id/search_folder"
    android:layout_alignStart="@+id/search_folder"
    android:layout_marginBottom="2dp"
    android:layout_marginLeft="9dp"
    android:layout_marginStart="9dp"
    android:contentDescription="magnifying glass"
    android:src="@drawable/ic_menu_search" />

<include
    android:id="@+id/toolbar"
    layout="@layout/app_bar" />


<EditText
    android:id="@+id/search_folder"
    android:layout_width="250dp"
    android:layout_height="30dp"
    android:layout_marginLeft="8dp"
    android:layout_marginTop="10dp"
    android:background="@drawable/search_custom_widget"
    android:focusable="true"
    android:hint="Search in folders"
    android:iconifiedByDefault="false"
    android:paddingLeft="40dp"
    android:paddingRight="55dp"
    android:singleLine="true"
    android:textSize="14sp"

    android:textStyle="bold" />

<Button
    android:id="@+id/search_button"
    style="?android:attr/buttonStyleSmall"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="26dp"
    android:layout_alignBottom="@+id/search_folder"
    android:layout_alignEnd="@+id/search_folder"
    android:layout_alignRight="@+id/search_folder"
    android:layout_marginBottom="2dp"
    android:layout_marginRight="2dp"
    android:background="@color/my_blue"

    android:text="Go"
    android:textColor="#fff"
    android:textSize="10sp" />


<com.name.cardbox.SlidingTabLayout
    android:id="@+id/sliding_tabs"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
    android:layout_alignParentStart="true"
    android:layout_below="@+id/app_bar"
    android:layout_marginTop="40dp"
    android:background="@color/my_blue" />


<android.support.v4.view.ViewPager
    android:id="@+id/viewpager"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:layout_below="@+id/sliding_tabs"
    android:background="#fff">


</android.support.v4.view.ViewPager>

Why the discrepancy? What am I missing and how can I fix it? Thank.

This seems to be a bug in API 21 - Issue 77982 .

. .

: 1) Actually, the 21 works fine. Is the 19 that doesn't.

- " api 21 Android". sdk 21, sdk 21, apis.

2) searchView.setPadding(40, 0, 55, 0);

, , . dp

int paddingLeft = (int) TypedValue.applyDimension(TypedValue.COMPLEX_UNIT_DIP, 40, getResources().getDisplayMetrics());
        int paddingRight = (int) TypedValue.applyDimension(TypedValue.COMPLEX_UNIT_DIP, 55, getResources().getDisplayMetrics());
        int paddingTop = editText.getPaddingTop();
        int paddingBottom = editText.getPaddingBottom();
        editText.setPadding(paddingLeft, paddingTop, paddingRight, paddingBottom);

Answer 2
