Android Question B4XView SetBitmap

[Alex_197]

Hi all

I want to show a B4XView (button) with an icon and border.

My code is

        Button1.SetColorAndBorder(Colors.green,2dip,Colors.Black,0dip)
        Button2.SetColorAndBorder(Colors.White,2dip,Colors.Black,0dip)

        Dim bmp As Bitmap
        bmp.Initialize(File.DirAssets,"rx.png")
 

 
        Button1.SetBitmap(bmp)
        
        bmp.Initialize(File.DirAssets,"hearbit32.png")
 
        Button2.SetBitmap(bmp)

The icon shown correctly but without a border around the button. Is it possible to show a border and the icon on the same button?

Thanks

One option using CSBuilder ... but unable to get the image to fill the buttons, so unsure if this will suit you.

Dim cs As CSBuilder
    cs.Initialize
    cs.Image(LoadBitmap(File.DirAssets, "rx.png"), 40dip, 40dip, False)
    Button1.SetColorAndBorder(Colors.green,2dip,Colors.Black, 0)
    Button1.Text = cs
  
    cs.Initialize
    cs.Image(LoadBitmap(File.DirAssets, "hearbit32.png"), 40dip, 40dip, False)
    Button2.SetColorAndBorder(Colors.White,2dip,Colors.Black, 0)
    Button2.Text = cs

Other than that possibly just use a panel overlay / underlay for the border

This will be the simplest solution.

Calling B4XView.SetColorAndBorder and B4XView.SetBitmap, both replace the view's drawable with a new one so they cannot be used together.
