Is it possible to use VectorDrawable in Buttons and TextViews using android:DrawableRight?
<p>When I use VectorDrawable assets in a textview or imageview I get a runtime crash when using "android:DrawableRight" / "android:DrawableEnd" / "android:DrawableStart" / "android:DrawableLeft".</p>

<p>The app will compile fine without any warnings.</p>

<p>I am using </p>

<ul>
<li>Gradle 1.5 </li>
<li>Support Library 23.2 ('com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.2.0')</li>
</ul>

<p>What I have found though is that I can programmatically assign SVG's in Java without crashes like this.</p>

<pre><code>TextView tv = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.textView);
tv.setCompoundDrawablesWithIntrinsicBounds(null,null, getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.ic_accessible_white_36px),null);
</code></pre>

<p>(I suspect this is a support library bug for 23.2.) </p>

<p>But is it possible to use drawableRight etc for SVG assets ?</p>

<p>Here is my layout</p>

<pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?&gt;
&lt;RelativeLayout
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:paddingBottom="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
    android:paddingLeft="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
    android:paddingRight="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
    android:paddingTop="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
    tools:context="au.com.angryitguy.testsvg.MainActivity"&gt;


&lt;TextView
    android:id="@+id/textView"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:drawableRight="@drawable/ic_accessible_white_36px"
    android:background="@color/colorPrimary"
    android:textColor="#FFFFFF"
    android:textSize="22sp"
    android:text="Hello World!"/&gt;
&lt;/RelativeLayout&gt;
</code></pre>

<p>Here is my Activity</p>

<pre><code>package au.com.angryitguy.testsvg;

import android.content.Intent;
import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.Button;

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

        }
    }
</code></pre>

<p>Here is the unmodified VectorDrawable asset from Google's material design site.</p>
