I am trying to set a menu icon programatically with setIcon() with a custom drawable. The drawable has multiple paths of different colors. However whenever I set the icon the style that is set as the theme of the activity:
<style name="ToolBarTheme" parent="Theme.MaterialComponents.Light.NoActionBar">
<item name="colorPrimary">@color/grey_45</item>
<item name="colorPrimaryVariant">@color/blue_03</item>
<item name="colorOnPrimary">@color/blue_05</item>
<item name="colorSurface">@color/blue_02</item>
<item name="colorPrimaryDark">@color/blue_10</item>
<item name="android:windowAnimationStyle">@null</item>
</style>
overrides each path's color and displays a single one instead. Specifically the item - @color/grey_45. When I removed it, instead of showing the items with the original drawable color, it shows it with a purple-ish tint.
How can I set the menu icon to a drawable that contains multiple colors?
This is the xml object where the menu is:
<com.google.android.material.bottomnavigation.BottomNavigationView
android:id="@+id/bottomNavigationView"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="@android:color/transparent"
app:itemActiveIndicatorStyle="@color/blue_10"
app:itemRippleColor="@color/blue_10"
app:menu="@menu/bottom_nav_menu" />
PS : I took a look at this link but they advice to use setTint() method which results in Icon being single colored.
