In Android, padding can be set programmatically using the methods or properties available in the Android API.
If you want to set padding via LayoutParams (usually when setting layout properties in LinearLayout, RelativeLayout, etc.), you can adjust the code as per the specific needs and layout structure of your Android app.
As suggested by other developers, this approach sets padding in pixels. However, if you prefer to set padding in dp, you can calculate the dp value like this:
view.setPadding(0, padding, 0, 0)
To use dp values, you can use the following method:
val paddingDp = 25
val density = context.resources.displayMetrics.density
val paddingPixel = (paddingDp * density).toInt()
view.setPadding(0, paddingPixel, 0, 0)
This converts dp to pixels, allowing you to set padding with density-independent pixels.
