android:spacing="16dp",material design - Android Chip Custom Height Or Padding - Chipgroup spacing -...

You have to set the height of your Chip to make it "thinner".

Check below code:

build.gradle (app)

implementation 'com.google.android.material:material:1.0.0-rc01'

ic_vector_android.xml

android:width="24dp"

android:height="24dp"

android:viewportWidth="24.0"

android:viewportHeight="24.0">

android:fillColor="#FFFFFF"

To get the thinner Chip I have to set the following properties:

android:layout_height="20dp" // Thinner Height

app:chipIconSize="14dp" // Smaller icon size

app:chipStartPadding="8dp" // Add padding to start of icon

app:chipCornerRadius="10dp" // Set Corner radius
