How to create image button in android?

Question

So I\'m new to android development...How can I create an image that acts like button, so when I press that image, image starts a specific activity. So I want this to show as ima

Answer 1

Create ImageButton as:

In main.xml:

    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
/>

In Code part:

ImageButton ib=(ImageButton)findViewById(R.id.ib);
ib.setOnClickListener(ibLis);
    }
    private OnClickListener ibLis=new OnClickListener(){

        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {
            // TODO Auto-generated method stub
            //START YOUR ACTIVITY HERE AS
             Intent intent = new Intent(YOUR_CURRENT_ACTIVITY.this,NextActivity.class);
             startActivity(intent, 0);
        }
    };

EDIT:

and second option if you want to create an image like button using Button View then Create an Custom button as:

First put your all images like for pressed,focused and default in res/drawable folder and then add an newbtn.xml in drawable/newbtn.xml as:

Finally in button XML set android:background as :

    />
