Update: I got Vector Drawables working on API Level pre-20 devices with teh following configuration.
build.gradle
vectorDrawables.useSupportLibrary = true
dependencies{classpath ‘com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.1.2’}
Activity
onCreate > AppCompatDelegate.setCompatVectorFromResourcesEnabled(true);
ImageView — XML
app:srcCompat=”@drawable/vector”
ImageView — Programmatic
imageView.setBackgroundResource(R.vector);
vector.xml
`<vector xmlns:android=”http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:width=”30dp”
android:height=”20dp”
android:viewportHeight=”20.0"
android:viewportWidth=”30.0">
<path
android:fillColor=”#4C5F70"
android:pathData=”DATA_HERE”
android:strokeColor=”#00000000"
android:strokeWidth=”1"/>
</vector>`
