[android-developers] Problem with StateListDrawables not found in 1.5 but there from 1.6 onwards
Hi ,
I am having the following code for drawing buttons in my project.
I am having a button which has three images for 1 button .Namely one image
for the rectangle and 2 images for the left and right side curves
respectively.
When the button has focus , there is another three images for focus and
similarly 3 images when button is pressed.
Following is the code.
public void setButtonStyle(Button btn) {
//The middle rectangle
StateListDrawable drawables = new StateListDrawable();
drawables.addState(new int[] { stateFocused, -statePressed },
dButtonMidOverImage);
drawables.addState(new int[] { stateFocused, statePressed },
dButtonMidDownImage);
drawables.addState(new int[] { -stateFocused, statePressed },
dButtonMidDownImage);
drawables.addState(new int[] { -stateChecked }, dButtonMidUpImage);
btn.setBackgroundDrawable(drawables);
//The left curve
StateListDrawable drawablesLeft = new StateListDrawable();
drawablesLeft.addState(new int[] { stateFocused, -statePressed },
dButtonLeftOverImage);
drawablesLeft.addState(new int[] { stateFocused, statePressed },
dButtonLeftDownImage);
drawablesLeft.addState(new int[] { -stateFocused, statePressed },
dButtonLeftDownImage);
drawablesLeft.addState(new int[] { -stateChecked },
dButtonLeftUpImage);
StateListDrawable drawablesRight = new StateListDrawable();
drawablesRight.addState(new int[] { stateFocused, -statePressed },
dButtonRightOverImage);
//The right curve
drawablesRight.addState(new int[] { stateFocused, statePressed },
dButtonRightDownImage);
drawablesRight.addState(new int[] { -stateFocused, statePressed },
dButtonRightDownImage);
drawablesRight.addState(new int[] { -stateChecked },
dButtonRightUpImage);
//Compound drawables set for left and right side.
btn.setCompoundDrawablesWithIntrinsicBounds(drawablesLeft, null,
drawablesRight, null);
}
This thing which i have done runtime can be done in the XML too , but i want
to change themes runtime so my images for button will also change runtime.
If i do the code in the XML it works fine on both Android 1.5 as well as
Android 1.6 .But doing it in code distorts the images for 1.6 emulator.
I have attached the screen shot of the buttons on both 1.5 and 1.6
emulators.As you can see, the left and right curve images come almost to the
center and the centre image is expanded in 1.6 emulator. The same problem is
seen on HTC Desire (Android2.1)
Is there something wrong that i am doing . Is there any workaround for this
problem.
Thanks ,
Alok.,

For 9 patch images i suppose they need to be stored under drawable folder. I need to change the images according to theme at runtime.

Re: [android-developers] Problem with StateListDrawables not found in 1.5 but there from 1.6 onwards
Thanks for the link Kostya, But my problem is that i cannot have my images under drawable folder and also cannot specify the image path in my XML for layout as and when the user wishes to change the theme , a new theme will be downloaded from the server and the new set of images will be loaded at runtime ,, So if my button has a yellow color when it has focus it might become red when user changes theme.So all the three images for a button will change at runtime..So all my drawables need to be kept in the runtime application folder ie data/data/appPackage/themes which i am doing curently.. Is the 9 patch image logic useful in this case ? The statelistdrawable works fine if i have only one image for a Widget.But in case of button i have three images which is not working 1.6 onwards..

Re: [android-developers] Problem with StateListDrawables not found in 1.5 but there from 1.6 onwards
Ah, this is different. Nine patches are great for smart scaling of images. What you need is an additional abstraction layer: drawables with state selectors, like so: ?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8? selector xmlns:android=http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android; item android:state_enabled=false android:drawable=@drawable/search__disabled / item android:drawable=@drawable/search_normal / /selector Normally, you save this under drawable (say, res/drawable/search_button.xml) and references in your layout file, just like any drawable. In your case, it's necessary to create these drawables at runtime. Looks like StateListDrawable and its addState() method should do the job. -- Kostya Alok Kulkarni kulsu...@gmail.com писал(а) в своём письме Wed, 05 May 2010 12:43:46 +0400: Thanks for the link Kostya, But my problem is that i cannot have my images under drawable folder and also cannot specify the image path in my XML for layout as and when the user wishes to change the theme , a new theme will be downloaded from the server and the new set of images will be loaded at runtime ,, So if my button has a yellow color when it has focus it might become red when user changes theme.So all the three images for a button will change at runtime..So all my drawables need to be kept in the runtime application folder ie data/data/appPackage/themes which i am doing curently..
