LottieAnimationView height not respecting wrap_content

We have a LottieAnimationView centered vertically on the screen with height wrap_content and a TextView below it.

In v2.0.0 this works as expected. We recently upgraded to v2.3.1 and now the LottieAnimationView is taking up the entire screen, meaning we can’t see the TextView anymore.

This is the xml for both cases. I made the background of the whole layout red and the animation background white to highlight the problem.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:background="#FF0000">

    <!-- Centers animationView & titleView within the available parent space -->
    <LinearLayout
        android:id="@id/container"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_centerVertical="true"
        android:orientation="vertical">

        <com.airbnb.lottie.LottieAnimationView
            android:id="@+id/animationView"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:background="@color/white"
            app:lottie_autoPlay="true"
            app:lottie_fileName="looking-dealers.json"
            app:lottie_loop="true" />

        <TextView
            android:id="@+id/titleView"
            style="@style/Title"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:layout_marginTop="54dp"
            android:layout_marginLeft="@dimen/margin_m"
            android:layout_marginRight="@dimen/margin_m"
            android:gravity="center"
            android:text="@string/pine_select_dealer_looking_for_dealers" />
    </LinearLayout>
</RelativeLayout>

v2.0.0:

v2.3.1:

We have started using some other new features from v2.3.1, so we can’t just go back to v2.0.0. Can you have a look at this issue and/or suggest a workaround until it is fixed?

android:adjustViewBounds=“true” might be what you’re looking for.
