Standard Android Button with a Different Color

This example demonstrate about Standard Android Button with a different color

Step 1 − Create a new project in Android Studio, go to File ⇒ New Project and fill all required details to create a new project.

Step 2 − Add the following code to res/layout/activity_main.xml.

<?xml version = "1.0" encoding = "utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android = "http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
   xmlns:app = "http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
   xmlns:tools = "http://schemas.android.com/tools"
   android:layout_width = "match_parent"
   android:gravity = "center"
   android:layout_height = "match_parent"
   tools:context = ".MainActivity"
   android:orientation = "vertical">
   <Button
      android:id = "@+id/parcleObject"
      android:layout_width = "wrap_content"
      android:layout_height = "wrap_content"
      android:layout_alignParentTop = "true"
      android:layout_centerHorizontal = "true"
      android:layout_marginTop = "27dp"
      android:background = "@drawable/background"
      android:text = "Click here"/>
</LinearLayout>

In the above code, we have taken button view to show different colors.

Step 3 − Add the following code to drawable / background.xml

<?xml version = "1.0" encoding = "utf-8"?>
<selector
   xmlns:android = "http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
   <item android:state_pressed = "true" >
      <shape>
         <gradient
            android:startColor = "#f0ff00"
            android:endColor = "#d9dd95"
            android:angle = "270" />
         <stroke
            android:width = "3dp"
            android:color = "#d1d3e3" />
         <corners
            android:radius = "3dp" />
         <padding
            android:left = "10dp"
            android:top = "10dp"
            android:right = "10dp"
            android:bottom = "10dp" />
      </shape>
   </item>
   <item android:state_focused = "true" >
      <shape>
         <gradient
            android:endColor = "#fd5900"
            android:startColor = "#eca680"
            android:angle = "270" />
         <stroke
            android:width = "3dp"
            android:color = "#d1d3e3" />
         <corners
            android:radius = "3dp" />
         <padding
            android:left = "10dp"
            android:top = "10dp"
            android:right = "10dp"
            android:bottom = "10dp" />
      </shape>
   </item>
   <item>
      <shape>
         <gradient
            android:endColor = "#4356e7"
            android:startColor = "#a1aaee"
            android:angle = "270" />
         <stroke
            android:width = "3dp"
            android:color = "#d1d3e3" />
         <corners
            android:radius = "3dp" />
         <padding
            android:left = "10dp"
            android:top = "10dp"
            android:right = "10dp"
            android:bottom = "10dp" />
      </shape>
   </item>
</selector>
