Can anybody tell me how to resize the imageButton to fit the image exactly? This is the code that I tried, but the image is placed at the position that I am locating using android:scaleType, but I am not able to reduce the size of imageButton. Please help me out in rectifying this issue. The code that I tried is:

<ImageButton>
android:id="@+id/Button01"
android:scaleType="fitXY" // i have tried all the values for this attr
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:cropToPadding="false"
android:paddingLeft="10dp"
android:src="@drawable/eye"> // this is the image(eye)
</ImageButton>

android:background="@drawable/eye"

works automatically.

android:src="@drawable/eye"

was what I used with all the problems of resizing the image the the width and height of the button...
