Android Tutorial & Lessons 33: How to create a CUSTOM (aka sweet) Button

Check out the discussion @ my forum for this lesson:

Whats up CornFanz, thanks for watching my videos, I would love it if you subscribe and give me some feedback.

In this lesson you will:
-Create your own custom Button!!
-Bam!
-Some other sweet stuff
-subscribe
-Thumbs up this video ;)

This video is the 33th in a web series that I am creating to help you learn Android programming so you can create apps and eventually how to learn to write games for android phones. I want to explain things in a way that everyone can understand, even if you have no experience with Java, XML, C++, OpenGL, or as a matter of fact, any other programming language.




If you do have a lot of experience with programming, these first videos will be really slow for you, but my goal is to get everyone sprinting, but for now we have learn to crawl.

thx for the tutorial. Ive got a question concerning multiple custom buttons in one activity. I looked it up in the developer guide but i didn't found a solution. Is there a way to add multiple selectors in one xml file, or do you have to create a xml file for each custom button?

[YahyaIN]

Thanks a lot for this tutorial... but if I want to create the custom button as circle, i want only the circle to be pressed, not the the whole box which in clude the circle

I can't get the emulator to load. I created more memory on my PC, and it still refuses to load. Man your tutorials are sweet. Maybe eclipse will get better in a few years. Until then.... I got to look for another development tool. Failure is not an option. Peace Out.
