TextInputLayout error text padding

Question

I am using TextInputLayout with AppCompatEditText having a custom xml shape based background for AppCompatEditText. Whenever i set some error , the error line starts from beginning of layout. Is there any way to give padding to that error line.

You can reference error TextView by using:

TextView textView = (TextView) inputLayout.findViewById(android.support.design.R.id
            .textinput_error);

Then you can get its layout params to work with.
