Ripple effect activated on backpressed

Question

as title says, how to make my ripple effect on ImageButton (ripple effect assigned to this ImageButton) activated on backpressed() without back to the previous activity

Answer 1

with a bit of logic you could achieve that easily. what i thought of is that you have a method lets call it doSomething();

boolean onBackpressed = false;
private void doSomthing() {
    if(onBackpressed){
        finish();
    }else{
        // do anything else that the button wants to do;
    }
}

now onBackpressed() you could do this

@Override public void onBackpressed() {
    onBackpressed = true;
    myImageButton.performClick(); // myImageButton.callOnClick()
}

P.S: that i didn't call super.onBackpressed(); so we can control the back press without existing the app.

of course your imageButton click listener calls doSomething() method.
