Remove padding in horizontal progress bar

mreichelt :

In our application we need an indeterminate progress bar, like so:

progress bar how it should be

We can achieve this by setting a negative margin on the ProgressBar, like this:

<ProgressBar
    android:id="@+id/progressbar"
    style="?android:attr/progressBarStyleHorizontal"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:indeterminate="true"
    android:marginTop="-7dp"
    android:visibility="@{loading ? View.VISIBLE : View.GONE}" />

BUT because ConstraintLayout does not support negative margins, it will look like this:

progress bar with padding

OK, the negative margin was a hack. Let's replace it with a different hack, shall we? Let's introduce our custom view CustomProgressBar, which extends ProgressBar and overrides its onDraw method, like this:

@Override
protected void onDraw(Canvas canvas) {
    int marginTop = dpToPx(7);
    canvas.translate(0, -marginTop);
    super.onDraw(canvas);
}

But all of this smells like bad code. There has to be a better solution! What would you recommend?

Another way to do this is to use a Guideline and center ProgressBar between the parent top and the guideline.

<ProgressBar
    android:id="@+id/progressBar2"
    style="?android:attr/progressBarStyleHorizontal"
    android:layout_width="0dp"
    android:paddingTop="-4dp"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    app:layout_constraintRight_toRightOf="parent"
    app:layout_constraintLeft_toLeftOf="parent"
    app:layout_constraintBottom_toTopOf="@+id/guideline"
    app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent" />

<android.support.constraint.Guideline
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:id="@+id/guideline"
    android:orientation="horizontal"
    app:layout_constraintGuide_begin="4dp" />
