Android button with different background colors

Question

i want to change the background-color of a button using a selector-xml-file. My approach is basically the one from the example at the bottom this page: http://developer.andr

Answer 1

In the URL you pointed to, the button_text.xml is being used to set the textColor attribute.That it is reason they had the button_text.xml in res/color folder and therefore they used @color/button_text.xml

But you are trying to use it for background attribute. The background attribute looks for something in res/drawable folder.

check this i got this selector custom button from the internet.I dont have the link.but i thank the poster for this.It helped me.have this in the drawable folder

And i used in my main.xml layout like this

Hope this helps. Vik is correct.

EDIT : Here is the colors.xml

   #F9E60E
   #F9F89D
   #F7BE45
   #F7D896
   #19FCDA
   #D9F7F2
   #ACA899
   #FFFFFF
   #DDDDDD
