I want to create a button with image inside it as shown at the bottom of this pic https://trianglewiki.org/RGreenway_App/_files/android.jpg/_info/ . I am trying using layer-list and shape drawables and able to create buttons very similar. My problem is that my image is not scaling inside the button as I would like. The ring shape is coming on the top of the image but image is not inside it.
I want the image to be completely inside the ring. I think there is something wrong with the parameters values I am giving. But it could be I am not doing it the proper way.
Can somebody check my xml files and see what is the problem or provide me with any information how to do it so that I get the same effect in the button as in the link above. Thanks
