Question

Is it possible to capture release of a button just as we capture click using onClickListener() and OnClick() ?

I want to increase size of a button when it is pressed and move it back to the original size when the click is released. Can anyone help me how to do this?

Answer 1

You should set an OnTouchListener on your button.

button.setOnTouchListener(new OnTouchListener() {
    @Override
    public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {
        if(event.getAction() == MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN) {
            increaseSize();
        } else if (event.getAction() == MotionEvent.ACTION_UP) {
            resetSize();
        }
    }
};
