how to change background image of button when clicked/focused?

Question

I want to change the background image of a button when clicked or focused.

This is my code:

Button tiny = (Button)findViewById(R.id.tiny);
tiny.setOn         


        

Answer 1

To change the button background we can follow 2 methods

1. In the button OnClick, just add this code:

    public void onClick(View v) {
        if(v == buttonName) {
           buttonName.setBackgroundDrawable
            (getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.imageName_selected));
         }
   
          }
   

   2.Create button_background.xml in the drawable folder.(using xml)

   res -> drawable -> button_background.xml

   Now set the above file in button's background file.

        
   
                             (or)
   
            Button tiny = (Button)findViewById(R.id.tiny);
                  tiny.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.abc);
   

   2nd method is better for setting the background fd button
