how to change padding of ButtonRectangle

[isaactalx]

I want to change the radius and padding of the ButtonRectange in Xml but it doesn't work

I have the same problem, I studied the ButtonRectangle.class but I could not find a way how to solve that. I think the problem consists with the fact that this class extends a class which extends RelativeLayout. I managed to set padding by removing from comment some lines that were commented in this class, which handle the padding that you set from XML.
My problem is that there is an unwanted padding top and bottom for my button. The only way that i could remove this padding was by changing my button height from wrap_content to a fixed dp height.
But this is a workaround that I need to fix in the right way.

Hi, sorry this is a pending bug to fix, I tried fix it, but I couldn't because set padding by XML don't working very well in the custom views, I'll try fix it.

Maybe materialdesign:paddingStart and materialdesign:paddingEnd?

But these attributes only work in version 11 or higher

Maybe, at this point of development, it will be enough to use margin and Height / Width for Button?
