[android-beginners] Re: Missing/Hidden/Dissappearing Button problem
I have no idea why, but changing the file name to anything that doesn't begin with the letter a seems to work. I had tried different file names, but all of them began with a. I don't have any idea why this would affect anything. I have other files the same size (both in pixels and in kb) that begin with a that work just fine. I guess since as a user the file name doesn't matter, it's not that big of a deal, but it would be nice to know why! On Jun 5, 5:55 pm, Tollas tolla...@gmail.com wrote: Yes, I have tried that.

And this also broke another image. Fixing that one by changing the name broke a 3rd image. Fixing that broke a 4th. Changed all 4 image names and now all work properly.

[android-beginners] Re: Missing/Hidden/Dissappearing Button problem
The button is there. I can click on it and it behaves normally. I have a Spinner onItemSelected that updates the button's image. When I activate that set to any value but the default, the button updates properly and the new image is displayed.

Yes. (getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.attack_any) != null) returns true.
