How to change text padding in android bottom navigation view : <p>I am using the bottom navigation view for an android app. I have increased the size of my icon, but now the icon runs over the text. Here is what I see:</p>

<p>The number 10, I want to change that padding, but when I look in the properties for the navigation bar, I don't see where I can do it. How can I change it to a smaller number? In my bottom_layout.xml I am setting my items up like so:</p>

<pre><code>&lt;item
    android:id="@+id/menu_notifications"
    android:title="Professionals"
    android:icon="@drawable/ic_action_name"
    app:showAsAction="ifRoom"
    /&gt;
</code></pre>

<p>How can I change the bottom text padding?</p>

<p>thanks</p>
