Problem with Android togglebutton

Question

I tried to set up my togglebutton properties layout using style.xml. Here's my code:

    <ToggleButton android:id="@+id/button_toggle_1" style="button_test_1"/>

    <ToggleButton android:id="@+id/button_toggle_2"
        android:textOff="test2"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content" />

    <ToggleButton android:id="@+id/button_toggle_3" style="button_test_3"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content" />

For ID=button_toggle_1, I apply a style (style.xml), here's the code:

<style name="button_test_1">
    <item name="android:textOff">test1</item>
    <item name="android:layout_width">wrap_content</item>
    <item name="android:layout_height">wrap_content</item>
</style>

<style name="button_test_3">
    <item name="android:textOff">test3</item>
</style>

I can see button 2 and 3 but the text for button 3 is different from what I set it to be. button 3 text = "APAGADO". From this test, I conclude that togglebutton simply cannot set its properties using style.xml. Is this true? or did I do something wrong?

If toggle button is "special", anyone knows the reason why? is this "special" condition applies to other things as well?

Thanks!

You are not referencing the styles correctly. It is style="@style/style_name". See documentation.
