D dantheman Member Licensed User Longtime User Mar 30, 2013 #5 Hi, now that that you've figured out how to use a PNG file for your button, could you tell me how please? Yours is the only pertinent thread from a search. Just adding an image file in the Designer doesn't let me have an option to choose it instead of the colours etc. Upvote 0

PenguinHero Member Licensed User Longtime User Mar 30, 2013 #6 Hi, You just want to add an image to a button? I'm not sure how to do that in the designer - I do all my stuff programatically. In the code you can add a line like the following: Code: Copy btnPvP.SetBackgroundImage(LoadBitmap(File.DirAssets, "PvP2.png")) Obviously you would replace my button name and image file name with your own, and you have to add the image to the project via the Files tab at the bottom-right of the IDE. Someone must know how to do this in the designer, so hopefully you will get more answers. Upvote 0

klaus Expert Licensed User Longtime User Mar 30, 2013 #7 In the Designer: - add the image files you need using the Add Images button - select the Button you want to add the images to - set the Dawable property to StatelistDrawable - select for each state BitmapDrawable - select for each state the image If you don't use Disabled state you can leave the default setting.
