Android Question How to add image on colordrawable button?

There is probably a better way but I used a small panel with an imageview on top. The panel is slightly bigger than the image and I change the color of the panel to show the image has been clicked.

You can add the image with the designer by using a BitmapDrawable. A simple solution is to include the background color in the image.

Thanks Mark for the solution, but i like the default button appearance and effect, also i need the up & down event that the button has.

Thanks Erel, the reason i want to make this button is to be able to change the background color in the app (like theme) and i don't want to create many same images with different background color for the same button to minimize the apk size.

For now, i use 2 stacking panel to achieve it, one panel contain the colordrawable button and the other contain the imageview.
