I think I tried using the same setCompundDrawables... method but it didn't work for me either. Here's how I've got two different buttons in my xml (which you should be able to convert into java easily). The first is a button with an icon to the left and text in the button as well, the other button just has an icon on it only.
<Button android:drawableLeft="@drawable/arrow_up" android:text="up" android:id="@+id/headerButtonUp" android:layout_gravity="left|center_vertical" android:onClick="viewClickButtonUpAFolder" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" /> <ImageButton android:src="@drawable/house" android:id="@+id/headerButtonHome" android:gravity="center_horizontal|center_vertical" android:minWidth="50dip" android:layout_gravity="right|center_vertical" android:onClick="viewClickButtonHome" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" /> -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
