How To Change Button Background When Button State Is Changed

Wondering how can I change my button background programmatically by setting onClickListener. I mean that when I firstly pressed my button it changes its background image and save

Solution 1:

You could have a global variable storing the background int:

privateint backgroundNumber = 0;

Then, in onClick() you could do something like this:

backgroundNumber++;
switch (backgroundNumber % numberOfBackgrounds) { // numberOfBackgrounds is a constant of how many backgrounds there arecase1: 
        button.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.background1);
        break;
    // Do cases for all the backgrounds
}

I think that should work.

Solution 2:

Try like this.

You know how many states you have. Use an int variable (lest say buttonState) to save button state (ex. states 1,2,3. MAX_STATE = 3).

On click just change state and replace background depending on the current buttonState variable value.

@Click(R.id.button_action)voidonButtonActionClicked() {
        buttonState = ++buttonState % BTN_STATE_MAX;

        switch (buttonState){
        case BTN_SAVE:
            button.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.button_save);
            break;
        case BTN_LOAD:
            button.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.button_load);
            break;
        case BTN_DELETE:
            button.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.button_delete);
            break;
        }
    }
