ImageButton

public class ImageButton
extends ImageView

java.lang.Object
   ↳ android.view.View
     ↳ android.widget.ImageView
       ↳ android.widget.ImageButton
Known Direct Subclasses

Displays a button with an image (instead of text) that can be pressed or clicked by the user. By default, an ImageButton looks like a regular Button, with the standard button background that changes color during different button states. The image on the surface of the button is defined either by the android:src attribute in the <ImageButton> XML element or by the setImageResource(int) method.

To remove the standard button background image, define your own background image or set the background color to be transparent.

To indicate the different button states (focused, selected, etc.), you can define a different image for each state. E.g., a blue image by default, an orange one for when focused, and a yellow one for when pressed. An easy way to do this is with an XML drawable "selector." For example:

 <?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/button_pressed" /> <!-- pressed -->
     <item android:state_focused="true"
           android:drawable="@drawable/button_focused" /> <!-- focused -->
     <item android:drawable="@drawable/button_normal" /> <!-- default -->
 </selector>

Save the XML file in your project res/drawable/ folder and then reference it as a drawable for the source of your ImageButton (in the android:src attribute). Android will automatically change the image based on the state of the button and the corresponding images defined in the XML.

The order of the <item> elements is important because they are evaluated in order. This is why the "normal" button image comes last, because it will only be applied after android:state_pressed and android:state_focused have both evaluated false.

See the Buttons guide.

Public methods

getAccessibilityClassName

Added in API level 23
CharSequence getAccessibilityClassName ()

Return the class name of this object to be used for accessibility purposes. Subclasses should only override this if they are implementing something that should be seen as a completely new class of view when used by accessibility, unrelated to the class it is deriving from. This is used to fill in AccessibilityNodeInfo.setClassName.

Returns
CharSequence

Protected methods

onSetAlpha

Added in API level 1
boolean onSetAlpha (int alpha)

Invoked if there is a Transform that involves alpha. Subclass that can draw themselves with the specified alpha should return true, and then respect that alpha when their onDraw() is called. If this returns false then the view may be redirected to draw into an offscreen buffer to fulfill the request, which will look fine, but may be slower than if the subclass handles it internally. The default implementation returns false.

Parameters
alpha int: The alpha (0..255) to apply to the view's drawing
Returns
boolean true if the view can draw with the specified alpha.
