Toggle Button Using Two Image on Different State

Toggle button using two image on different state

Do this:

<ToggleButton 
        android:id="@+id/toggle"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:background="@drawable/check"   <!--check.xml-->
        android:layout_margin="10dp"
        android:textOn=""
        android:textOff=""
        android:focusable="false"
        android:focusableInTouchMode="false"
        android:layout_centerVertical="true"/>

create check.xml in drawable folder

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <!-- When selected, use grey -->
    <item android:drawable="@drawable/selected_image"
          android:state_checked="true" />
    <!-- When not selected, use white-->
    <item android:drawable="@drawable/unselected_image"
        android:state_checked="false"/>

 </selector>

Android: Specify two different images for togglebutton using XML

Your code is fine. However, the toggle button will display the first item in your selector that it matches, so the default should come last. Arrange the items in the following manner to ensure they will all be utilized:

<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <item android:state_checked="true" android:state_pressed="true" /> //currently pressed turning the toggle on
    <item android:state_pressed="true" /> //currently pressed turning the toggle off
    <item android:state_checked="true" /> //not pressed default checked state
    <item /> //default non-pressed non-checked
</selector>

jquery toggle with buttons two images?

Have a look at this Tutorial - jQuery Image Swap Using Click - This may be what you are trying to achieve. Let us know how you get on.

ToggleButton changing image depending on state

You can get the functionality you want by creating a UserControl that exposes dependency properties for Command, IsChecked, and one for each stateful image. Your user control will contain a toggle button and image.

You can use MultiDataTriggers to detect your state and swtich the image depending on the state.

Because you exposed the DependencyProperties for the stateful images, they can be set using Databinding wherever you declare your control. The triggers will automatically switch the image source for you, once state changes.

[Edit: Added some code to help explain]

Here is a partial example to get you started:

MyToggleButton.xaml:

<UserControl x:Class="ToggleTest.MyToggleButton"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml">

And the cs file:

using System;

    using System.Windows;
    using System.Windows.Controls;
    using System.Windows.Media;

    namespace ToggleTest

{
    /// <summary>
    /// Interaction logic for ToggleButton.xaml
    /// </summary>
    public partial class MyToggleButton : UserControl
    {
        public MyToggleButton()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
        }

        public static readonly DependencyProperty EnabledUncheckedProperty =
            DependencyProperty.Register(
            "EnabledUnchecked",
            typeof(ImageSource),
            typeof(MyToggleButton),
            new PropertyMetadata(onEnabledUncheckedChangedCallback));

        public ImageSource EnabledUnchecked
        {
            get { return (ImageSource)GetValue(EnabledUncheckedProperty); }
            set { SetValue(EnabledUncheckedProperty, value); }
        }

        static void onEnabledUncheckedChangedCallback(
            DependencyObject dobj,
            DependencyPropertyChangedEventArgs args)
        {
            //do something if needed
        }

        public static readonly DependencyProperty DisabledUncheckedProperty =
            DependencyProperty.Register(
            "DisabledUnchecked",
            typeof(ImageSource),
            typeof(MyToggleButton),
            new PropertyMetadata(onDisabledUncheckedChangedCallback));

        public ImageSource DisabledUnchecked
        {
            get { return (ImageSource)GetValue(DisabledUncheckedProperty); }
            set { SetValue(DisabledUncheckedProperty, value); }
        }

        static void onDisabledUncheckedChangedCallback(
            DependencyObject dobj,
            DependencyPropertyChangedEventArgs args)
        {
            //do something if needed
        }

        public static readonly DependencyProperty EnabledCheckedProperty =
            DependencyProperty.Register(
            "EnabledChecked",
            typeof(ImageSource),
            typeof(MyToggleButton),
            new PropertyMetadata(onEnabledCheckedChangedCallback));

        public ImageSource EnabledChecked
        {
            get { return (ImageSource)GetValue(EnabledCheckedProperty); }
            set { SetValue(EnabledCheckedProperty, value); }
        }

        static void onEnabledCheckedChangedCallback(
            DependencyObject dobj,
            DependencyPropertyChangedEventArgs args)
        {
            //do something if needed
        }

        public static readonly DependencyProperty IsCheckedProperty =
            DependencyProperty.Register(
            "IsChecked",
            typeof(Boolean),
            typeof(MyToggleButton),
            new PropertyMetadata(onCheckedChangedCallback));

        public Boolean IsChecked
        {
            get { return (Boolean)GetValue(IsCheckedProperty); }
            set { if(value != IsChecked) SetValue(IsCheckedProperty, value); }
        }

        static void onCheckedChangedCallback(
            DependencyObject dobj,
            DependencyPropertyChangedEventArgs args)
        {
            //do something, if needed
        }

    }
}

This control could be used like so:

<local:MyToggleButton
            IsChecked='True'
            IsEnabled='False'
            EnabledChecked='<add your image source here>'
            EnabledUnchecked='<add your image source here>'
            DisabledUnchecked='<add your image source here>'/>

How to create a custom toggle button with an image on it that also scales correctly for each density in android

Even the built in two-state toggle button requires an onClick method to handle click events, for that reason I would argue that it is no more complex to have a regular button which handles visual toggling in an onClick method of its own.

Since you want the option of using images I will use an ImageButton for the example.

The XML for an ImageButton with a custom color:

<ImageButton
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:id="@+id/toggleButton"
    android:layout_marginTop="152dp"
    android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
    android:src="@drawable/state0"
    android:onClick="onToggleClick"
    android:background="@color/red"/>

Color assets should be defined in a new XML values file ( see http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/resources/more-resources.html#Color)

The onClick method to handle toggling the visuals of the button looked like this in the example I built for myself:

public void onToggleClick(View view){
    toggleState = (toggleState+1)%3;
    switch(toggleState){
        case 0:
            toggleButton.setImageResource(R.drawable.state0);
            toggleButton.setBackgroundColor(0xffff0000);
            break;
        case 1:
            toggleButton.setImageResource(R.drawable.state1);
            toggleButton.setBackgroundColor(0xff00ffff);
            break;
        case 2:
            toggleButton.setImageResource(R.drawable.state2);
            toggleButton.setBackgroundColor(0xffff00ff);
            break;
    }
}

Please don't hardcode the colors as hex values, make variables for them, in your final project.

For reference hex colors are in the form of 0xAARRGGBB

To the comment:

If you would like to pair text and an image on the same button android supports that in XML. It would look something like this to have an icon to the left of a button:

<Button
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="@string/button_text"
android:drawableLeft="@drawable/button_icon"
... />
source: http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/ui/controls/button.html

But then you wouldn't be able to switch the image with the method of the ImageButton class.

Change toggle button image onclick

Delete both btnFav.setChecked(true) and btnFav.setChecked(false) in your OnClick method. It is a togglebutton which toggles the setChecked on its own by every click and you reset it to the old value. So in your case it always has the same value(the start value).

I would suggest you rather use setOnCheckedChangeListener instead of onClickListener.
