Android progressbar in button
Yes.
You can create an AnimationDrawable, as described here, and then use the drawableLeft
tag (for example) in your button's XML. like so:
<Button
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="@drawable/your_background_drawable_resource"
android:drawableLeft="@drawable/your_animation_drawable_resource"
android:text="@string/your_text_res">
</Button>
I was having the same problem, so I created a specialized button for this: LoadingProgressButton
Include the button like this:
<br.com.simplepass.loading_button_lib.CircularProgressButton
android:id="@+id/btn_id"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="@drawable/circular_border_shape"
app:spinning_bar_width="4dp" <!-- Optional -->
app:spinning_bar_color="#FFF" <!-- Optional -->
app:spinning_bar_padding="6dp" <!-- Optional -->
And use it like this:
CircularProgressButton btn = (CircularProgressButton) findViewById(R.id.btn_id)
btn.startAnimation();
[do some async task. When it finishes]
//You can choose the color and the image after the loading is finished
btn.doneLoagingAnimation(fillColor, bitmap);
[or just revert de animation]
btn.revertAnimation();
