Question

I’m working on a custom numberpicker and I have a button with a ‘+’ and ‘-‘ sign.
At the moment I just have this code to create the button.

increment = new Button(context);
increment.setTextSize(25);
increment.setText("+");

Now, i want to add the minimum and maximum value to be shown on the button like this.

How can I achieve this?
So I need to center the max label, and give it a different size as the plus sign.

Any help would be greatly appreciated! 🙂

I don’t know whether this is what your need or not,,

But in your layout xml file,

<Button
         android:id="@+id/btn1"
         android:layout_width="0dip"
         android:background="@android:color/darker_gray"
         android:drawableBottom="@drawable/image_plus"
         android:text="Max: 10"
         />

<!-- 
android:drawableBottom="@drawable/image_plus" // plus sign from drawable
android:text="Max: 10" // Text you want to put on top of image
 -->

Or using code,

increment = new Button(context);
increment.setTextSize(25);
increment.setText("Max: 10");
increment.setCompoundDrawables(null, null, null, getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.plus_sign)); // Here you have to apply + sign image to drawable
