Android Studio – Background image is not showing right on button

I am making an UI on Android Studio.

I want to make a button with background image that I made.

Then I want to write some text on it.

However, when I set the background on button, it is just showing me black color.

I eidted theme.xml file to change status bar’s color to black.

This is the background that I want to apply on button.

    I found solution for this kind of issue!

    it is because of Material components in theme.xml.

    all you need to add to fix this is:

    <style name="btn_style" parent="Widget.MaterialComponents.Button">
    <item name="backgroundTint">@null</item>
</style>

    Write this code in your theme.xml. Then reference it to your button.
