How do I add animation / styling to a button? Android Studio

I have a button
<Button
android:id="#+id/button"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="45dp"
android:onClick="loginIsClicked"
android:layout_marginStart="8dp"
android:layout_marginTop="12dp"
android:layout_marginEnd="8dp"
android:background="#drawable/button"
android:text="#string/Auth"
android:textAllCaps="false"
android:textColor="#color/white"
android:textSize="16sp"
android:enabled="false" />
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape android:shape="rectangle" xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<solid android:color="#color/red"/>
<corners android:radius="10dp"/>
</shape>
How can I add animation to the button used in the default buttons?
Example:
enter image description here

If I understood correctly, what you are looking for is a ripple. Wrap your shape in a ripple as follows and provide your ripple color:
<ripple xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:color="#color/rippleColor">
<item>
<shape android:shape="rectangle">
<solid android:color="#color/red"/>
<corners android:radius="10dp"/>
</shape>
</item>
</ripple>

Add MaterialButton.
<com.google.android.material.button.MaterialButton
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_margin="16dp"
android:text="Button" />
Also do not forget to change theme Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar to Theme.MaterialComponents.Light.DarkActionBar in styles.xml file.

Set width SeekBar Android

I'm using VerticalSeekBar and I would like to set the width.
With the term width I mean the width of the seekbarbar progress part.
This is my xml
<com.h6ah4i.android.widget.verticalseekbar.VerticalSeekBarWrapper
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="350dp"
android:layout_below="#+id/btnDate"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:layout_alignParentEnd="true"
android:layout_marginRight="15dp">
<com.h6ah4i.android.widget.verticalseekbar.VerticalSeekBar
android:id="#+id/verticaleDate"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="0dp"
app:seekBarRotation="CW270"
android:max="10"
android:splitTrack="false"/>
</com.h6ah4i.android.widget.verticalseekbar.VerticalSeekBarWrapper>
Thanks for interesting.

Update your seekbar layout by this:
<com.h6ah4i.android.widget.verticalseekbar.VerticalSeekBarWrapper
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="350dp"
android:layout_below="#+id/btnDate"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:layout_alignParentEnd="true"
android:layout_marginRight="15dp">
<com.h6ah4i.android.widget.verticalseekbar.VerticalSeekBar
android:id="#+id/verticaleDate"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:progressDrawable="#drawable/progress"
android:thumb="#drawable/thumb"
app:seekBarRotation="CW270"
android:max="10"
android:splitTrack="false"/>
</com.h6ah4i.android.widget.verticalseekbar.VerticalSeekBarWrapper>

Buttons design like in Jeepsing

I'm trying to create buttons in Android the same way as in Jeepsing application for iPhone using linear layout but without success. Maximum that I get is three separated buttons the same size.
I need three buttons without background, separated only by their borders when two of them have one rounded corner like on the following screenshot:
This is my last try:
<LinearLayout android:id="#+id/LinearLayout02" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_width="match_parent">
<Button android:id="#+id/Button04" android:text="Button" android:layout_width="0dp" android:layout_weight="1" android:layout_height="wrap_content"></Button>
<Button android:id="#+id/Button05" android:text="Button" android:layout_width="0dp" android:layout_weight="1" android:layout_height="wrap_content"></Button>
<Button android:id="#+id/Button06" android:text="Button" android:layout_width="0dp" android:layout_weight="1" android:layout_height="wrap_content"></Button>
</LinearLayout>
I also tried GridLayout but without success.

just create shapes with corners radius for both pressed/released effects..
<solid android:color="#77000000" />
<corners android:radius="10dip" />
<gradient
android:angle="-90"
android:endColor="#44FF0000"
android:startColor="#CCFF0000" />
<padding
android:bottom="10dip"
android:left="10dip"
android:right="10dip"
android:top="10dip" />
<stroke
android:width="1dip"
android:color="#000000" >
</stroke>
for more info about shapes refer this
After creating shapes for pressed/released effects create a XML file for button selector like following example
<selector
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item
android:state_pressed="true"
android:drawable="#drawable/prs_arrival_fb_btn" /> <!-- pressed -->
<item
android:state_focused="true"
android:drawable="#drawable/prs_arrival_fb_btn" /> <!-- focused -->
<item
android:drawable="#drawable/arrival_fb_content_btn" /> <!-- default -->
</selector>
then set this selector to your button as background.. like the following example..
<Button android:text="Play" android:id="#+id/playBtn"
android:background="#drawable/button_selector"
android:textColor="#ffffff" />

This is how I achieved it:
up_left_button_selector.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item android:drawable="#drawable/up_left_button_shape_pressed"
android:state_pressed="true" />
<item android:drawable="#drawable/up_left_button_shape_pressed"
android:state_selected="true" />
<item android:drawable="#drawable/up_left_button_shape_released" />
</selector>
up_left_button_shape_pressed.xml
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shape="rectangle">
<gradient
android:startColor="#ff0000ff"
android:endColor="#ff0000ff"
android:angle="45"/>
<padding android:left="0dp"
android:top="0dp"
android:right="0dp"
android:bottom="0dp" />
<corners android:radius="8dp"
android:bottomRightRadius="0dp" android:bottomLeftRadius="0dp"
android:topLeftRadius="8dp" android:topRightRadius="0dp"/>
<stroke android:width="2dp" android:color="#ff444444"/>
</shape>
up_center_button_shape_released.xml
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shape="rectangle">
<gradient
android:startColor="#00000000"
android:endColor="#00000000"
android:angle="45"/>
<padding android:left="0dp"
android:top="0dp"
android:right="0dp"
android:bottom="0dp" />
<corners android:radius="8dp"
android:bottomRightRadius="0dp" android:bottomLeftRadius="0dp"
android:topLeftRadius="8dp" android:topRightRadius="0dp"/>
<stroke android:width="2dp" android:color="#ff444444"/>
</shape>
Center and right button shapes are the same, just need to play with which corners to round.
And finally the view layout:
<TableRow android:id="#+id/buttonsRow"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:paddingTop="10dp">
<RelativeLayout android:id="#+id/buttonsRowRelativeLayout"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="match_parent">
<Button
android:id="#+id/leftButton"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="#string/save"
android:textColor="#ffffffff"
android:background="#drawable/up_left_button_selector"
android:layout_toLeftOf="#+id/centerButton" />
<Button
android:id="#+id/centerButton"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="#string/change"
android:textColor="#ffffffff"
android:background="#drawable/up_center_button_selector"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"/>
<Button
android:id="#+id/rightButton"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="#string/send"
android:textColor="#ffffffff"
android:background="#drawable/up_right_button_selector"
android:layout_toRightOf="#+id/centerButton" />
</RelativeLayout >
</TableRow>
And it looks pretty good.
