created issue #1

Dec 30, 2022 04:00PM

Component used: androidx.core.splashscreen.SplashScreen Version used: 1.0.0 Devices/Android versions reproduced on: Android 5, Android 6

SplashScreen.install method calls android.content.Context.getDrawable on API 21. It, in turn, calls android.graphics.drawable.VectorDrawable.inflate instead of VectorDrawableCompat.inflate.

VectorDrawable does not support some features like gradients, what may lead to a crash (see: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/53018399/android-invalid-color-state-list-tag-gradient) when inflating the VectorDrawable.

Suggestion: At least enable the users of the library to use VectorDrawableCompat instead of VectorDrawable.

The release notes documentation has been edited to clarify this change in behavior for line height.

To support non-standard text sizes, we encourage users to follow the Material design system and use a different type scale rather than changing the font size directly. Alternatively, users can overwrite the line height like so: style = LocalTextStyle.current.copy(lineHeight = TextUnit.Unspecified), or create a custom Typography entirely.
