I’ve created a bottom menu and used a relative layout to place it there but I don’t know if I’m going about this the right way. It’s a PNG bar with three images on it one for maps, one for facilities and one for search which all should lead to a three different activities.
How do I make each image a button, I know how to make the whole bar a button, in a webpage you can add an image map and create hotspost with the three links.
How do I do that in an Android application?
Cheers,
Mike.
You use three images, and use each in an
ImageButton.Even better would be to follow platform conventions, either:
Using an ordinary options menu, which will automatically be hoisted to your action bar on Android 3.0+, and where you can make some of those be toolbar buttons if you want for immediate clickablilty
Using an action bar library for all Android versions, such as ActionBarSherlock, so you have the same behavior everywhere, including the toolbar buttons where there is room
