Styling issues with Androidx material design lib

[wezley98]

Can you add a public method to allow us to overrider the snackbar layout background colour to resolve the issue seen below please?

Following code is used to display:

Rate.Builder(this)
            .setSnackBarParent(root_layout)
            .setFeedbackAction(Uri.parse(Constants.EMAIL_ADDRESS))
            .build()
            .apply {
                count()
                showRequest()
            }

Hi, I'll add a method, as I can see how that would be a useful feature for many people. For the time being, you could probably get what you need by tweaking your theme or trying this:

• call .setLightTheme(true/false) on the builder, or:
• set the global Snackbar background color by adding a color with this specific name to your resources:
  <color name="design_snackbar_background_color" tools:override="true">#ff9900</color>. This option only works if setLightTheme is set to false.

Thanks, I will take a look and report back if this works.

Setting setLightTheme(false) and adding <color name="design_snackbar_background_color" tools:override="true">#ff9900</color> as suggested above has no effect.

also setLightTheme(true) has the following (Notice the give feedback button text is wrong)

@mlagerberg any progress with this, or should I raise a pull request?

I'm having the same layout problems. In my case, every button in the dialog has a background (colorPrimary), but the feedback button doesn't look good since it's placed to the right edge of the dialog. This library needs a refresh!
