Android gallery of LinearLayouts

Question

I'm using Gallery widget to create gallery of LinearLayouts, each of them containing a button. The problem is that while scrolling or clicking LinearLayout that button gets "pressed" state. How do I prevent it? I want it to react only to direct button clicks.

Thanks

// Edit: attached code

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:orientation="vertical"
    android:layout_width="260dip"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:padding="10dip">

  <!-- some other things here -->

  <Button style="@style/button"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal"
        android:text="Just testing" />
</LinearLayout>

Could you post your layout code? You could try setting the LinearLayouts to android:clickable="false" — Codeman, Aug 25 '11 at 14:51
I've included the code. android:clickable didn't help, but thanks anyway — Sebastian Nowak, Aug 25 '11 at 14:57
This is likely intended behavior. If it really bothers you, you could try using a GestureListener to make the GalleryView behave how you want it to. — Codeman, Aug 25 '11 at 14:59
It's definitely behaviour intended by android developers, otherwise it wouldn't work that way. What I'm asking is how can I disable it. — Sebastian Nowak, Aug 25 '11 at 15:04
Make all of your buttons clickable="false" unless you detect a MotionEvent that you want it to react to? — Codeman, Aug 25 '11 at 15:10
Even setting both clickable="false" and focusable="false" doesn't help. The button still gets the background from selector android:state_pressed. — Sebastian Nowak, Aug 25 '11 at 16:01

I've just found out the same question has been asked here: Gallery/AdapterView Child Drawable State

Overriding setPressed did the trick.
