Android - Set Clicked focus on Button

Question

I am having 4 buttons in my layout, now whenever i click any button, after the click event, button should be highlighed showing that it was clicked last.

For making such thing, i have tried the following:

code:

btn1.setOnClickListener(new button_click_listener());
btn2.setOnClickListener(new button_click_listener());


class button_click_listener implements Button.OnClickListener
{
    @Override
    public void onClick(View v) 
    {
       if(v==btn1)
       {
            btn1.requestFocus();
       }

       if(v==btn2)
       {
            btn2.requestFocus();
       }
        .......
    }
}

XML Layout:

<Button 
   android:text="Click 1" 
   android:id="@+id/btnClick1" 
   android:layout_width="70dp" 
   android:layout_height="wrap_content"
   style="@android:style/Widget.Button.Small"
   android:padding="10dp"
   android:focusableInTouchMode="true">
</Button>

How do i show clicked highlight on the button that was clicked last? Please, show me a way and give suggestions.

Update:

If i set android:focusable="true" then button is highlighted and focused, but then at the same time, i need to click twice on the button to perform the actual click event.

Answer 1

its easy buddy...just you have to set backgroundcolor of ur button on ur click event and each time any button clicked u have to set other buttons background color null
