Support library VectorDrawable Resources$NotFoundException

Question

I am using Design Support Library version 23.4.0. I have enabled the gradle flag:

defaultConfig {
    vectorDrawables.useSupportLibrary = tr         


        

Answer 1

change

imageView.setImageResource(R.drawable.drawable_image)

to

imageView.setImageDrawable(ContextCompat.getDrawable(getContext(), R.drawable.drawable_image));

if you want to use vectordrawable in xml, use this:

app:srcCompat="@drawable/drawable_image"

Answer 2

Try using:

imageView.setImageDrawable(VectorDrawableCompat.create(getResources(), drawableRes, null));

You don't have to add AppCompatDelegate.setCompatVectorFromResourcesEnabled(true); this way.

Just inflate your vector drawables using VectorDrawableCompat and you're all set.

Answer 3

To complement some of the answers here: backward-compatible support for VectorDrawables comes with a price and doesn't work in all cases.

In which cases does it work? I've made this diagram to help (valid for Support Library 23.4.0 to at least 25.1.0).

Answer 4

I had the same problem and actually what was missing is I was using app:srcCompat on AppCompatTextView except of AppCompatImageView.

The way I have found the problematic part:

My error looks like:

Fatal Exception: android.content.res.Resources$NotFoundException
Resource ID #0x7f0700d1

Here are the steps I followed the resource id of the mentioned drawable :

• APK Analyzer -> classesXXX.dex
• In this dex file I opened the directory of my apps package name and went to R$drawable file
• R$drawable -> Show as byte code.
• Search for ID [0x7f0700d1] (check your own ID)
• Find the image and check for all the usages (CMD + F7) of the resource
• Fix

Hope it will help somebody.

Answer 5

defaultConfig {
  vectorDrawables.useSupportLibrary = true
}

use this in app.gradle

Then use AppCompatDrawableManager to setDrawable and getDrawable. Works for me

Answer 6

In my particular case, I had this problem because I was using a drawable selector as the image resource with several vectors in the selector, as in:

<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <item android:state_selected="true" android:drawable="@drawable/vector_select_blue"/>
    <item android:state_pressed="true" android:drawable="@drawable/vector_select_black"/>
    .
    .
    etc
</selector>

Yes, pretty bad, but didn't know better at the time.

So, the right way of doing this is using the tint property in your vector file, as in:

<vector ..vector properties..
        android:tint="@color/vector_color_selector">
              <path ..path properties../>
</vector>

(You can also use the app:tint attribute in the AppCompatImageView)

And now, your vector_color_selector file should have the colors you want, as in:

<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <item android:state_selected="true" android:color="@color/blue"/>
    <item android:state_pressed="true" android:color="@color/black"/>
    .
    .
    etc
</selector>

I hope this helps someone if previous answers didn't work for you. Stating the obvious, but I must say that you still need to set vectorDrawables.useSupportLibrary = true in gradle, use AppCompatImageView and use app:srcCompat or setImageDrawable + AppCompatResources.getDrawable to avoid any troubles with the vector compat library.
