I've created a SpannableString with an icon in the middle. And it looks like this
As you can see here, the text is not aligned with the icon's center.
I've tried adding ImageSpan.ALIGN_BASELINE but it doesnt work. I've also tried gravity in Textview.
Here's my sample code:
fun showTextWithIcon(){
val text = "Hey this is my text"
val spannableString = SpannableString(text)
val iconDrawable = ContextCompat.getDrawable(this,R.drawable.ic_icon)
val iconSize = binding.textview.textSize.roundToInt()
iconDrawable!!.setBounds(0, 0, iconDrawable.intrinsicHeight, iconDrawable.intrinsicWidth)
val imageSpan = ImageSpan(iconDrawable)
spannableString.setSpan(imageSpan, text.length /2, text.length/2+1, Spannable.SPAN_INCLUSIVE_EXCLUSIVE);
binding.textview.text = spannableString
}
