How to make button with custom background image show click animation in Android

Question

How to make button show it is clicked (by setting it go down/some change) for buttons using custom background image in Android. I do not want to include more images and set

Answer 1

just wanna add another easy way to do this: If your ImageButton remains its background and you don't set it to null, it will work like a normal button and will show the click animation while clicking exactly like other buttons.The way to hide the background while it is still there:

the paddings won't let the background be visible and make the button act like other buttons.
