Android Button Highlight

In android, we can highlight the button through custom images. Here is a example that will give you about how to set a image when the button is focused, pressed and focused pressed. we can set each image for each stage.
Example for Android Button Highlight :-

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

02	<LinearLayout android:id="@+id/LinearLayout01"

03	android:layout_width="fill_parent"

04	android:layout_height="fill_parent"

05	xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">

06	// Adding Button to Layout

07	<Button android:id="@+id/Button01"

08	android:background="@drawable/buttonhighlight"

09	android:layout_height="60px"

10	android:layout_width="100px"></Button>

11	</LinearLayout>

Here “@drawable/buttonhighlight” is a XML file located in res/drawable folder. (see below image blue color highlighted)

Create a XML file in res/drawable folder (ex:- buttonhighlight.xml) and write the code as

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

02	<selectorxmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">

03	// Button Focused

04	<item android:state_focused="true"

05	android:state_pressed="false"

06	android:drawable="@drawable/buttonhighlightfocused" />

07	// Button Focused Pressed

08	<item android:state_focused="true"

09	android:state_pressed="true"

10	android:drawable="@drawable/buttonhighlightpressed" />

11	// Button Pressed

12	<item android:state_focused="false"

13	android:state_pressed="true"

14	android:drawable="@drawable/buttonhighlightpressed" />

15	// Button Default Image

16	<item android:drawable="@drawable/buttonhighlightdefault"/>
