Buttons

This library offers two main types of buttons so far.

• MaterialFloatingActionButton - This provides the floating action button pattern seen in many apps today. It automatically takes the theming from the app and defaults to the accent color of the current style.
• MaterialFlatButton - This provides a flat button that reacts nicely to user input by slightly raising and with a visible ripple.

            android:id="@+id/activity_button_default_fab"
            android:layout_below="@id/activity_button_title_two"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content" />

MaterialFlatButton

XML Layout Examples

• Default layout.

   <com.devpaul.materiallibrary.views.MaterialFlatButton
            android:id="@+id/activity_button_default_flat_button"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:layout_below="@id/activity_button_title_one"
            android:layout_weight="1"/>

• Completely flat layout, without any shadow.

    <com.devpaul.materiallibrary.views.MaterialFlatButton
        android:id="@+id/activity_button_agree_flat_button"
        android:layout_toRightOf="@id/activity_button_default_flat_button"
        android:layout_below="@id/activity_button_title_one"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        app:mat_flat_button_color="#303F9F"
        app:mat_flat_button_is_flat="true"
        app:mat_flat_button_text="Agree"
        android:layout_weight="1"/>

• Similar to the default setting but with a custom color.

    <com.devpaul.materiallibrary.views.MaterialFlatButton
        android:id="@+id/activity_button_cancel_flat_button"
        android:layout_toRightOf="@id/activity_button_agree_flat_button"
        android:layout_below="@id/activity_button_title_one"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        app:mat_flat_button_color="#F44336"
        app:mat_flat_button_is_flat="false"
        app:mat_flat_button_text="Cancel"
        android:layout_weight="1"/>

Xml Attributes

• mat_flat_button_text : Use this to set the text of the button. This class does not inherit from the Button class in android so you need to use this custom attribute to set the text.
• mat_flat_button_is_flat : Set this as true to eliminate the shadow from the button.
• mat_flat_button_color : Set the color of the button, by default it is cyan.
