Question

I am trying to set a foreground image on my image button. This way, the button gray background is visible with the image appearing in the foreground.

I would appreciate any thoughts, please.

Thanks

Answer 1

If you want to remove that gray background while you set foreground image then set an empty Background image.
or Simply instead of setting foreground image set only background image to button.
I hope this will help you.

Edited with code

<ImageButton android:text="Button" android:id="@+id/button1"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content" 
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:src="@drawable/icon"/>

<ImageButton android:text="Button" android:id="@+id/button1"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content" 
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:background="@drawable/icon"/>
