Caused by: org.xmlpull.v1.XmlPullParserException: Binary XML file line #1: invalid drawable tag vector

What can I do - have cleaned it already

I searched for the error and found it in this XML code just here in android:background="@drawable/visibility_password":

<ToggleButton
    android:id="@+id/show"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_gravity="center"
    android:layout_marginEnd="8dp"
    android:layout_marginRight="8dp"
    android:layout_weight="0"
    android:background="@drawable/visibility_password"
    android:gravity="center"
    android:textOff=""
    android:textOn="" />

I'm using Vector XML in background not Image.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <selector xmlns:android="schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"> <item android:state_checked="true" android:drawable="@drawable/ic_visibility" /> <item android:state_checked="false" android:drawable="@drawable/ic_visibility_off" /> </selector> — Next

When you expand the res folder in the left, you get many other folders.. can you send a pic of those folders from Android Studio — Ümañg ßürmån

Solution: Try these steps below:

First, Add this line in your ic_visibility.xml and ic_visibility_off.xml

<vector
    ...
    android:tintMode="multiply"
    ...>

    ......
    ......

</vector>

Then, Don't forget to add build.gradle(Module:app) or the approach will not work on old Android versions.

defaultConfig {
    ....
    vectorDrawables.useSupportLibrary = true
    ....
}

Lastly, add this in you activity class, before onCreate():

static {
    AppCompatDelegate.setCompatVectorFromResourcesEnabled(true);
}

Try it. Hope it helps. Please comment if any doubts.

visibility_password.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <item android:state_checked="true"
        android:drawable="@drawable/ic_visibility" />

    <item android:state_checked="false"

Your this file visibility_password.xml must not be in the res/drawable directory.

Set project files as Project view. You might see some other folders like "drawable-v24"

Move your visibility_password.xml file to res/drawable folder.

This will resolve your issue
