I’ve added an example to reproduce the issue

I’ve been trying to understand what we did wrong and I don’t see much what we can do but finding a way to tell android to draw the elevation. Because on our side we are simply using view.draw(canvas);.

I’ve found something interesting tho and I wonder if it would help the issue: https://developer.android.com/reference/kotlin/android/graphics/Canvas.html?hl=en

The problem is this enableZ() is only available from Android 10 😑 i’m not even sure how to make conditional code in Android based on a higher version of the api

Thanks for the hardwork on this. I’m also having similar situation and tried the collapsible. I am testing on Android 6 though. If it works for Android 10+ that would be cool as most people do use those later versions.
