how add a border only on bottom of EditText?

Question

I saw many related discussions but didn't find a suitable solution. What I need to do is to create a black border on the bottom side of an EditText widget. Is that possible?

Answer 1

simple create one edittext_bottom_line.xml file in drawable folder in res

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<layer-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" >

    <item android:bottom="1dp"
        android:left="-2dp"
        android:right="-2dp"
        android:top="-2dp">
        <shape android:shape="rectangle" >
            <stroke
                android:width="0.5dp"
                android:color="@android:color/black" />
        </shape>
    </item>

</layer-list>

To set control's single property like these:

 <EditText
     android:id="@+id/editTextEnterPassword"
     android:layout_width="fill_parent"
     android:layout_height="40dp"
    android:background="@drawable/edittext_bottom_line"
    /> 

Answer 2

just add underlinebg.xml in res/drawable

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<layer-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" >

    <item android:bottom="-1dp"
        android:left="-2dp"
        android:right="-2dp"
        android:top="-2dp">
        <shape android:shape="rectangle" >
            <stroke
                android:width="2dp"
                android:color="@color/drawe_content_color_click" />
        </shape>
    </item>

</layer-list> 

and set the background where ever required. For me i got the solution like [![myoutput!!][1]][1] .I think my answer will helpful for others.
