Remove checkbox default padding

Question

I want the checkbox to have the same alignment as the edit text below it. Setting the left padding to 0 isn't doing anything, it looks like that space is part of the component.

Answer 1

Try this solution:

Click to copy

<CheckBox
        ...
        android:translationX="-5dp" />

Answer 2

Try to use

Click to copy

android:minWidth="0dp"
android:minHeight="0dp"

Worked for me
