In order to group a icon and a text, I have grouped them together in a linearlayout and implemented a listener for the linear layout.
<LinearLayout
android:id="@+id/ll0"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="fill_horizontal"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<ImageButton
android:id="@+id/imageButton0"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="@null"
android:src="@drawable/start" />
<TextView
android:id="@+id/textView0"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Start"
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceMedium" />
</LinearLayout>
I have implemented the listener, the following way:-
l0 = (LinearLayout)findViewById(R.id.ll0);
l0.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener()
{
public void onClick(View v)
{
//Some Code
}
});
The issue I'm facing is that which I click on the icon, the listener doesn't seem to respond. The listener worked when I click the space in between the textview and the icon. I would like the whole part to be clickable, not at a particular point.

I think the ImageButton
is a clickable view and is capturing the click, preventing the LinearLayout from receiving the click event. Try to add android:clickable="false"
to the XML defining the ImageButton
.
However, a better answer is to use a compound drawable. See How do I use a compound drawable instead of a LinearLayout that contains an ImageView and a TextView. Basically you can add android:drawableTop="@drawable/start"
to the XML defining the TextView
and do away with the LinearLayout
and ImageButton
altogether. Then you just handle the click on the TextView
.
