I'm trying to make a button look pressed when you click it. But when i try to implement that code into my xml file the rounded button feature i had beforehand doest work. Im linking the xml file to the android:background command on the button.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item android:drawable="@color/light_orange" android:state_pressed="true"/>
<item android:drawable="@color/orange"/>
<shape
android:shape="rectangle" android:padding="10dp">
<solid android:color="#FFFF00"/>
<corners
android:bottomRightRadius="10dp"
android:bottomLeftRadius="10dp"
android:topLeftRadius="10dp"
android:topRightRadius="10dp"/>
</shape>
</selector>
You need to have three xmls in total. One with your 'normal' rounded shape, one with your rounded shape with a different color or however you want to indicate that it is pressed. And last a selector like the one that you have in your example, where you reference the other two drawables, according to the state...
roughly something like that:
1- button_not_pressed.xml
<solid android:color="#FFFFFF00"/>
<corners
android:bottomRightRadius="10dp"
android:bottomLeftRadius="10dp"
android:topLeftRadius="10dp"
android:topRightRadius="10dp"/>
</shape>
2- button_pressed
<solid android:color="#AADDDD00"/>
<corners
android:bottomRightRadius="10dp"
android:bottomLeftRadius="10dp"
android:topLeftRadius="10dp"
android:topRightRadius="10dp"/>
</shape>
3- stateful_button.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item android:drawable="@drawable/button_pressed" android:state_pressed="true"/>
<item android:drawable="@color/button_not_pressed"/>
</selector>
You can then simply give your button the drawable stateful_button as background and it will change the color, when you press it...
