Thanks. With this method i don't have to add the edittext into the designer?
At the moment i style the edittext bycode with the colorDrawable, it interfiers?

After another look at this .... Yes , you don't have to add EditText into the designer.

After the edittext is loaded you can add colordrawable to background for border & color etc...
Unsure if this could be done initially within the manifest ...
