ImageView src with drawable selector ignores enabled state

Question

When using a state selector as the src for an ImageView, enabled="false" is being ignored.

i.e. this doesn't work properly:

<ImageView
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:enabled="false"
        android:src="@drawable/state_drawable" >

P.S. : I have an ugly workaround, I'll post it as an answer shortly, if you have something better or an explanation for this behavior, please let me know.

Answer 1

Try to add the property android:clickable="true"
