layout - Drawable shape not showing when used in combination with android:drawableBottom attribute.

XML file saved at res/drawable/gradient_box.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:shape="rectangle">
    <gradient
        android:startColor="#FFFF0000"
        android:endColor="#80FF00FF"
        android:angle="45"/>
    <padding android:left="7dp"
        android:top="7dp"
        android:right="7dp"
        android:bottom="7dp" />
    <corners android:radius="8dp" />
</shape>

(The above shape definition is is taken from then Android developer guide. There's no errors in it.).

Let's try to use it together with a TextView:

<TextView 
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:text="Text with some crazy rectangle shape below it."
    android:drawableBottom="@drawable/gradient_box"/>   

The TextView displays as if the drawableBottom attribute wasn't there! However, setting the shape as the background works just fine:

<TextView 
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:text="Text with crazy background"
    android:background="@drawable/gradient_box"/>

Setting an actual image (e.g. a *.png) to the android:drawableBottom also works fine.

Any ideas?

Solved it! The problem seems to be that a shape does not necessarily have intrinsic bounds. That is, the resulting drawable doesn't know how to draw itself!

To solve this problem, simply specify the size of the shape, like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:shape="rectangle">
    <gradient
        android:startColor="#FFFF0000"
        android:endColor="#80FF00FF"
        android:angle="45"/>
    <padding android:left="7dp"
        android:top="7dp"
        android:right="7dp"
        android:bottom="7dp" />
    <corners android:radius="8dp" />
    <size android:width="xxdp"
          android:height="xxdp"/>
</shape>

When the shape was specified as a background drawable for the TextView, its dimensions was known to be the same as the TextView dimensions. When telling the shape to go to the right or above the TextView, the shape dimensions could not be determined automatically.
