I’m developing an Android app from "Navigation Drawer Activity" Template.

I got this warning warning from an xml file

This tag and its children can be replaced by one <TextView/> and a compound drawable

Here is my layout:

<com.google.android.material.appbar.AppBarLayout
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:theme="@style/Theme.BodetTag.AppBarOverlay">

    <androidx.appcompat.widget.Toolbar
        android:id="@+id/toolbar"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:minHeight="?attr/actionBarSize"
        >
        <LinearLayout
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:gravity="center_vertical"
            android:orientation="horizontal">

            <ImageView
                android:layout_width="50dp"
                android:layout_height="50dp"
                android:src="@drawable/bodet_icon_mini"
                android:contentDescription="@string/bodet_icon" />

            <TextView
                android:id="@+id/title"
                android:layout_width="wrap_content"
                android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                android:gravity="center"
                android:minHeight="?actionBarSize"
                android:padding="@dimen/appbar_padding"
                android:text="@string/app_name"
                android:textAppearance="@style/TextAppearance.Widget.AppCompat.Toolbar.Title" />

        </LinearLayout>
    </androidx.appcompat.widget.Toolbar>

    <com.google.android.material.tabs.TabLayout
        android:id="@+id/tabs"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:background="?attr/colorPrimary"
        app:tabSelectedTextColor="@color/white"
        app:tabIndicatorColor="@color/white"
        android:minHeight="?attr/actionBarSize" />

</com.google.android.material.appbar.AppBarLayout>

The warning comes from the fact that I should use a TextView with a compound drawable.
The native API supports this functionality but we cannot handle the size of this drawable.

I read this thread and @Oleksandr advises us to use this library to replace ImageView and TextView by one TextViewRichDrawable which contains a drawable on which we can apply more parameters than when we use the native API.

So I tried to replace the LinearLayout with this:

<com.tolstykh.textviewrichdrawable.TextViewRichDrawable
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:text="Some text"
    app:drawableStartVector="@drawable/bodet_icon" />

But this does not show an image.

Can you help me?
