Re: [android-developers] Re: Creating custom button looks?
You can use a png I believe with transparency to produce any style button you want. I don't know if the hit-test for clicking on it will work only on the image part or the whole square width/height size of the button itself tho.

I had added a D-Pad image button to a game, and the transparent areas still registered hits. This was using the 1.5 SDK so I am not sure if any of the newer SDKs have changed this.

None of the SDK versions will automatically check what areas in the button should be a hit area... it's just a plane W x H area You will need to create a custom image button class and catch the touch events and decide if it's a hit or not... :) -Moto On Jan 15, 4:14 pm, clark clarkd...@gmail.com wrote: I had added a D-Pad image button to a game, and the transparent areas still registered hits.

[android-developers] Re: Creating custom button looks?
If you need multiple hit areas you may want to consider using several images to create 'one' button. For example a d-pad could be 5 imagebuttons, u/d/l/r and the middle. This approach will most likely save you quite a headache. -theSmith On Jan 15, 4:22 pm, Moto medicalsou...@gmail.com wrote: None of the SDK versions will automatically check what areas in the button should be a hit area... it's just a plane W x H area You will need to create a custom image button class and catch the touch events and decide if it's a hit or not... :) -Moto On Jan 15, 4:14 pm, clark clarkd...@gmail.com wrote: I had added a D-Pad image button to a game, and the transparent areas still registered hits.
