question about change the colours of a button when clicked - android

My purpose is to change the color of a button when click and my codes are
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<!-- When selected, use grey -->
<item android:drawable="#drawable/btn_askering_active" android:state_selected="true" />
<!-- When not selected, use white-->
item android:drawable="#drawable/btn_askering" />
</selector>
It works but if i make a small change like below :
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<!-- When not selected, use white-->
item android:drawable="#drawable/btn_askering" />
<!-- When selected, use grey -->
item android:drawable="#drawable/btn_askering_active" android:state_selected="true" />
</selector>
It does not work anymore....
I need some help...Any comments are welcomed here.Thanks

I think you need to mention stats in selector like pressed or focused and change image accordingly.
Here i have attached sample selector file,have a look and try accordingly.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<selector
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item android:state_focused="true" android:state_pressed="false"
android:drawable="#drawable/estimator_hover_new" />
<item android:state_focused="true" android:state_pressed="true"
android:drawable="#drawable/estimator_hover_new" />
<item android:state_focused="false" android:state_pressed="true"
android:drawable="#drawable/estimator_hover_new" />
<item android:drawable="#drawable/estimator_new" />
</selector>
All The Best....

Style EditText underline color android

I am creating a application that has couple of edittext's that chang color when the edittext has focus or not. When the view has the focus the color should be blue, when normal it should have white color, something like this:
I've tried creating two nine patches and setting the background according to this xml but seems its not working. Can anyone tell me how can I achieve this ?
Xml selector:
<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item android:state_enabled="true" android:state_focused="true"
android:drawable="#drawable/spelling_blue" />
<item android:state_window_focused="false" android:state_enabled="true"
android:drawable="#drawable/spelling_white" />
<item android:drawable="#drawable/spelling_white" />
</selector>
Thanks
I don't think you need to use android:state_window_focused.
Try this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item
android:state_pressed="true"
android:drawable="#drawable/spelling_blue" /> <!-- pressed -->
<item
android:state_focused="true"
android:drawable="#drawable/spelling_blue" /> <!-- focused -->
<item
android:drawable="#drawable/spelling_white" /> <!-- default -->
</selector>

AnimatedStateListDrawable shows incorrect animation

I want to make an animated drawable that animates while selected/unselected or not. There are different animation for "selected" -> "not selected" and "not selected" -> "selected" My problem is when i select my view, it triggers the right animation, but when i unselect it triggers the same animation in reverse instead of the correct one. Any ideas?
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<animated-selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<!-- provide a different drawable for each state-->
<item
android:id="#+id/not_selected"
android:state_selected="false"
android:drawable="#drawable/vector_bars" />
<item
android:id="#+id/selected"
android:state_selected="true"
android:drawable="#drawable/vector_arrow" />
<!-- specify a transition -->
<transition
android:fromId="#id/selected"
android:toId="#id/not_selected"
android:drawable="#drawable/anim_arrow_to_bars"
android:reversible="false"/>
<transition
android:fromId="#id/not_selected"
android:toId="#id/selected"
android:drawable="#drawable/anim_bars_to_arrow"
android:reversible="false"/>
</animated-selector>
Ok, after a more extensive search i found an answer. I added 2 additional states and changed the transitions a bit and it works as intended now.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<animated-selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<!-- provide a different drawable for each state-->
<item
android:id="#+id/not_selected_pressed"
android:state_selected="false"
android:state_pressed="true"
android:drawable="#drawable/vector_bars" />
<item
android:id="#+id/selected_pressed"
android:state_selected="true"
android:state_pressed="true"
android:drawable="#drawable/vector_arrow" />
<item
android:id="#+id/not_selected"
android:state_selected="false"
android:drawable="#drawable/vector_bars" />
<item
android:id="#+id/selected"
android:state_selected="true"
android:drawable="#drawable/vector_arrow" />
<!-- specify a transition -->
<transition
android:fromId="#id/selected_pressed"
android:toId="#id/not_selected"
android:drawable="#drawable/anim_arrow_to_bars"
android:reversible="false"/>
<transition
android:fromId="#id/selected_pressed"
android:toId="#id/selected"
android:drawable="#drawable/anim_bars_to_arrow"
android:reversible="false"/>
</animated-selector>

Define drawable for CheckedTextView for checked and pressed state in Android

I have current code
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item
android:state_checked="true"
android:drawable="#drawable/list_button_selected" />
<item
android:state_pressed="true"
android:drawable="#drawable/list_button_pressed" />
<item
android:drawable="#drawable/list_button" />
</selector>
for my CheckedTextView and it works. But when it's checked and I press on it, it shows default android color for background. How can I overwrite that? I tried
<item
android:state_checked="true"
android:state_pressed="true"
android:drawable="#drawable/list_button_selected" />
But it does not work.
In my case, order is important. I had to switch checked and pressed and its working now.

How do I get the android icons to change state (highlights)?

I am using the Android SDK icon-button for refresh (ic_menu_refresh) in a widget and I need to change the selection state when it is pressed. How is this done? Do I define an XML for the button?
You define the different states in xml via selector.
Sample (esp. see the state-attributes):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item android:drawable="#drawable/bg_catlocfilter" android:state_pressed="false" />
<item android:drawable="#drawable/bg_catlocfilter_dark" android:state_pressed="true" />
<item android:drawable="#drawable/bg_catlocfilter" android:state_focused="false" />
<item android:drawable="#drawable/bg_catlocfilter_dark" android:state_focused="true" />
</selector>

Android highlight ImageButton onclick

Is there a way to highlight an ImageButton when it's pressed?
You can define a drawable via XML and use the selector, like below, to use different (i.e. highlighted) images for different button states:
i.e. res/drawable/button.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item android:drawable="#drawable/bg_catlocfilter" android:state_pressed="false" />
<item android:drawable="#drawable/bg_catlocfilter_dark" android:state_pressed="true" />
<item android:drawable="#drawable/bg_catlocfilter" android:state_focused="false" />
<item android:drawable="#drawable/bg_catlocfilter_dark" android:state_focused="true" />
</selector>
Use this resource then for the ImageButton view.
