Barrier not working with viewstub, too much padding

Time:09-25

I am trying to use a barrier in combination with a viewstub which inflates a textinputlayout. The problem is that when the text error is set (e.g the user put something wrong in it), the padding gets absolutely messed up. I will provide the code and the screenshots.

Viewstub usage

<ViewStub

The only way I could solve this problem was to not use barriers anymore, but I would like to continue using them

Okay, I've managed to solve this problem. I had to delete the constraintlayout from my viewstub_inflated_layout. Here is the solution
