i want make slick gui application.

that's nice.

but how go creating cusom title bar button?

no sensible android developer puts "a button" on screen, since os provides button user.

be careful when doing custom title bars right now. android title bar morphing honeycomb "action bar" android 3.x, , there decent chance ice cream sandwich give phones "action bar" well. while can style action bar , lots of slick things it, has structure should adhered to, android applications can have consistent , feel. if make phone apps dependent on radically different sort of "custom title bar", may ux complaints users.

that being said, find easiest way "custom title bar" rid of existing title bar (e.g., android:theme="@android:style/theme.notitlebar" on <activity> in manifest) , "title bar" in activity's own layout. or, use feature_custom_title, described in this blog post.

and there tools make custom buttons in android?

photoshop. gimp. microsoft paint. etc.

if referring image go on face of button, need 1 image. if referring custom background, gets more complicated, need nine-patch png files, 1 each different state of relevance (normal, pressed, selected, etc.).

or make gui?

eclipse has drag-and-drop gui development nowadays.

also there books talk heavely android gui's?

assuming mean "heavily" (and distracted shift key while typing), pretty of them do. it's not they're covering web servers or beowulf clusters or something.

as whether meet standards "heavely", read tables of contents.
