It can be done by applying Widget.MaterialComponents.TextInputLayout.OutlinedBox style on a TextInputLayout.

<android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout android:id="@+id/name_text_input" style="@style/Widget.MaterialComponents.TextInputLayout.OutlinedBox" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" app:errorEnabled="true"> <android.support.design.widget.TextInputEditText android:id="@+id/name_edit_text" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:hint="Name" /> </android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout>

for this you need to migrate to android X
I am not sure I did when I used that.
This does not need AndroidX, it is simultaneously available in the com.android.support:design:28.x.x package for the legacy support libraries.

Outline Box

Outline text fields have a stroked border and are less emphasized. To use an outline text field, apply the following style to your TextInputLayout:

style="@style/Widget.MaterialComponents.TextInputLayout.OutlinedBox"

This cannot be achieved using android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout. You will have to create a custom class which can draw this kind of border around your edit text keeping in mind the hint text, you can use a png as your background if your hint text is constant

Have a look at TextField Widgets.

<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout android:id="@+id/textField" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:hint="@string/label"> <com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputEditText android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" /> </com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout>
