Question

hi do you know if there is a shortcut way to setup your layout files, a bit like CSS. e.g.
rather than

android:layout_marginTop="20dp"
android:layout_marginLeft="20dp"
android:layout_marginBottom="10dp"
android:layout_marginRight="5dp"

maybe like this?

android:layout_margin="20dp, 20dp, 10dp, 5dp"

the same would be for Padding/Radius etc…

Answer 1

if you want to set same value for all side then you can use like this:

android:layout_margin="20dp"

if you have different value for all side then you have to set them in this way:

android:layout_marginTop="20dp"
android:layout_marginLeft="20dp"
android:layout_marginBottom="10dp"
android:layout_marginRight="5dp"

and the same thing for padding.
