Create background image with margin on EditBox

Question

I'm trying to create a EditText box, like below which has a image on the left hand side and editable text region on the right hand side, but I don't seem to have the slightest clue how to do this in android :| I can find various solutions for putting an image in the background (so the text can overwrite it) and also how to make the rounded corners, but I cannot find a way to put the image on the left and the text on the right.

Any pointers would be very much appreciated!

Answer 1

Make a background graphic including the image and the border with the rounded corners. Make an EditText with this graphic as background and adjust the EditText with the android:paddingLeft/Top/Right/Bottom properties.
