Problem
I'm dynamically creating buttons. I styled them using XML first, and I'm trying to take the XML below and make it programattic.

linear = (LinearLayout) findViewById(R.id.LinearView);
Button button = new Button(this);
button.setText("Button");
button.setOnClickListener(listener);
button.setLayoutParams(
new LayoutParams(
android.view.ViewGroup.LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT,
android.view.ViewGroup.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT
)
);
linear.addView(button);

or
or
setCompoundDrawables method to do this. See the example here. I used this without using the setBounds and it worked. You can try either way.UPDATE: Copying the code here incase the link goes down
Drawable img = getContext().getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.smiley);
img.setBounds(0, 0, 60, 60);
txtVw.setCompoundDrawables(img, null, null, null);or
Drawable img = getContext().getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.smiley);
txtVw.setCompoundDrawablesWithIntrinsicBounds(img, null, null, null);or
txtVw.setCompoundDrawablesWithIntrinsicBounds(R.drawable.smiley, 0, 0, 0);Code Snippets
