Question

I have a clickable linear layout that I’ve generated programmaticly, and I want it to turn green when it is pressed to indicate that it is clickable, like a button would. How would I go about doing this?

Answer 1

create a selector.xml file as below…

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <item android:state_pressed="true"
          android:color="#ff0000"/> 
    <item android:state_focused="true"
          android:color="#0000ff"/>
    <item android:color="#00ff00"/> </selector>

place this xml file in drawable folder. Then set this selector.xml as background of that linearlayout.
