Drawable file wont change color in Dark Mode-CodePudding

Im currently working on a LoginActivity, I wanted to make an rounded Linear to put the Edittext's inside, I used an XML file to round the corners of them, but the only problem is, that they wont change their color in dark mode.

I already used the colors from the @colors file, but it wont affect at all, I tried to use cardview instead of a Linearview with an drawable file as background, but it breaks the layout.

XML:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <solid android:color="@color/design_default_color_on_primary"/>
    <stroke android:width="0dp" android:color="#B1BCBE" />
    <corners android:radius="20dp"/>
    <padding android:left="0dp" android:top="0dp" android:right="0dp" android:bottom="0dp" />
</shape>

LoginActivity.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

Maybe someone knows to fix this issue.

To support dark mode you need separate colors.xml file for night version. To create colors file for night mode. Follow these steps. Right click on values folder New > Value Resource File In the Available Qualifiers search for Night mode and click on (>>) button. From the drop down select Night Name the file as colors

And define all the night mode colors here

Names of the colors will be same as Non-Night colors file

Another way to create colors.xml for night mode is On top left corner click on Android and Switch to project, Go to folder app > src > main > res and create a new folder and name it values-night and inside that folder create and xml file named as colors.xml
