Android Question Funny button

[grafsoft]

This button is cut off at the bottom. It should be round.

On most devices it is OK, on some not, on some it is even cut in half.

I use this code to set a button containing a graphic symbol on a blue circle:

Sub setbackground (b As Button, bb As Button, siz As Int, dist As Int, xkorr As Int, ykorr As Int)
   Dim rad As Int = b.Width
   Dim c As Int = Main.a400color
   bb.color=c
   Dim cd As ColorDrawable
   cd.Initialize (c,rad)
   bb.Background=cd
   bb.Left=b.Left-dist+xkorr
   bb.Top=b.Top-dist+ykorr
   bb.Width=siz
   bb.Height=bb.Width
   bb.Visible=True
   b.Visible=True
   b.BringToFront
End Sub

did you wrap that button into its own panel? it seems that the panel's size is too small if that is the case.

 

[grafsoft]

No, everything is on one big panel.

Why aren't you adding the button with the designer?

 

[grafsoft]

What would be the advantage? I have to set the size and position at runtime.

 

[Erel]

It will be easier to implement correctly...

Useually to get a circle with a colordrawable I use half the width of the view as radius because it is the radius of the corner. Try with half width.
Also - don't change the width after assignment of the drawable.
