Boolean button changes color briefly when pressed

Hi, I am using Boolean button as a toggle, so I only want text changes when it is pressed with no changes to button appearance.
I am able to change the color for On in properties to match the Off color (I am using the Silver palette so normally On is yellow), however when the boolean button is changes to On, there's a brief changes of color still. Is there any way I can get rid of it? 
In fact some of my buttons blink black while others blink yellow. I have no idea where that is set.
Thak you very much.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

There are 4 colors for booleans ON and OFF plus going from ON to OFF and going from OFF to ON
You only see the transition color when you have the Mech latching set to "latch when released"
Set it to "Latch when pressed" and you will not see the transition colors
You can set all 4 colors by using the Colors [4] Property
Colors [4] Property
Short Name: Colors[4]
Requires: Base Development System
Class: Boolean Properties
To Use: Create a property.
Array of up to 4 (Foreground Color, Background Color) pairs, where Foreground Color is the foreground color of the Boolean control and Background Color is the background color of the Boolean control. Color pairs include False, True, True to False, and False to True.
You can set the color of the front panel object by wiring a hexadecimal number with the form RRGGBB or by wiring the color box constant to the property.
This property is similar to the Colors option on the Appearance page of the Boolean Properties dialog box.
If the Boolean control has four (Foreground Color, Background Color) pairs for the four states, this property always returns an array of four (Foreground Color, Background Color) pairs when reading. When writing, you can pass in an array of length 1, 2 or 4. If you pass in only one element, this property uses that element value for all four states. If you pass in two elements, this property uses the first element value for the False and True to False states. Similarly, this property uses the second element for the True and False to True states.
If the Boolean control has only one (Foreground Color, Background Color) pair for all four states, this property returns an array of one (Foreground Color, Background Color) pair when reading, and uses the first array element when writing. You cannot change a Boolean control with one (Foreground Color, Background Color) pair to a Boolean control with multiple (Foreground Color, Background Color) pairs.
This property only uses the True to False and False to True states when you set the Boolean control to latch or switch when released. You can get and set these (Foreground Color, Background Color) pairs even if you do not have the control set to latch or switch when released; they just are not used.
Because this property does not change the data of the Boolean control, you can set it at any time.
You can use the this property for Boolean controls on the Classic, Express, Modern, and Silver palettes. You cannot use this property for Boolean controls on the System palette.

  • Can i make a button change anchor link when you scroll down the site?

    I am trying to make a scroll site.. and i have navigation buttons on the right, a full menu, but also a "1 topic up" button and "1 topic down" button.
    Is there any way that i can have those buttons change anchor link when you scroll down the site.
    Example:
    I am at home, then i press "1 topic down" and gets scrolled to the next topic on the website, but then i cant make the button change to link to the anchor below that, so the button becomes useless after that 1 press.
    Is that in any way possible in Muse to make it change link?

    Hi
    You can try to create different buttons on page positions where down scrolling will be active with separate button actions. For example you click on "I topic down" , page scrolls and there is another button placed with "Next Topic down" , on click this would scroll the page more and similarly along the length of page.
    Button with anchor link scrolling down the page cannot be used for different anchor links, creating different buttons with anchors is the solution.
    Thanks,

  • How to start AND end a loop using a Boolean Button set to "Switch When Released" operation

    I have a Boolean button set to "Switch When Released" operation. When I press this button (now it's in the On state) I want to run a loop that does something continupously (for now, let's say it displays a simulated sine wave) until I press the button again (now the button is in the Off state) in which case, I want to end the loop. I am wiring my button to the loop condition that's set to "Continue if true" and have a "Wait Until Next ms Multiple" of 200 ms (I tried up to 500 ms). When I run the VI and press the button the first time, I see the sine wave displayed. But when I press the button again, nothing happens. It looks like it does not respond to the user interface. What's happening. What am I doing wrong? I'm using an Event Handler design pattern. I've also tried the Producer/Consumer (Events) design pattern. But I don't imagine the particular design pattern should make a difference. I've attached my code. Thanx.

    A simple solution would be to harness the timeout event, where you would put your data simulation. No need for parallel loops and local variables.
    The event timeout is starts out as  -1 (infinite) but pressing the start/stop button toggles between a 200ms and an infinite timout whenever it is pressed. Since the evet structure always runs, all other events (e.g. stop) are also serviced.
    Please ask if anything is not clear... Good luck!

  • When user enters and exits one movieclip, button changes color

    Hello,
    I currently have a slideshow-style navigation site.  There are five buttons on the bottom and when the user clicks each button, it triggers a nested movieclip to play.  I would like the button to be highlighted when the corresponding movieclip is playing, but when they click another button and another movieclip plays, I want the button to go back to its original color.
    The problem is that the movieclips that are playing are nested two levels down and the buttons have to be on the main timeline.  I think I might need an event listener to see if a certain nested movieclip is playing, to know to change the button color.  It seems to easy but I can't figure it out, thanks for any help!

    Hi again!  Sorry, I keep changing my mind on whether I've figured this out or not.  Now I need the buttons to become disabled when they are highlighted and active.  I tried putting a:  btns[i].enabled = false;  in the else part of the for-else statement and it didn't work.  Where would I put that kind of code?  Thanks!
    stop();
    //attach sounds
    Sound1 = new Sound();
    Sound1.attachSound("Sound1");
    Sound2 = new Sound();
    Sound2.attachSound("Sound2");
    Sound3 = new Sound();
    Sound3.attachSound("Sound3");
    //buttons
    //nav buttons
    b1.onRelease = function() {
        gotoAndStop(1);
        stopAllSounds()
        activeBtn(b1);
    b2.onRelease = function() {
        gotoAndStop(2);
        stopAllSounds();
        activeBtn(b2);
    b3.onRelease = function() {
        gotoAndStop(3);
        stopAllSounds();
        activeBtn(b3);
    //array for highlighted button state
    var btns:Array = [b1, b2, b3];
    function activeBtn(mc:MovieClip):Void{
       for(var i:Number=0; i<btns.length; i++){

             btns[i].gotoAndStop("inactive");
          }else{

  • Play Button Changes Color To Red, Can I Change It?

    In the Sliding Planes theme, when I preview, the Play button (originally dark blue) turns red. It has to be something set in the theme since other themes have a change in color of the Play button as well (sometimes to yellow and other colors). Is this changeable? I would rather the color not change and stay dark blue. Thanks a lot!

    Ok, I think you answered my question. I just want to make sure you know that it's not the highlighting persay that I'm talking about, it's just the fact that the button changes and stays to red, it's not that it only gets red when you're selecting it but that once the menu starts and the text flies in and the drop zones are in motion the top writting and everything is the color I want but the Play button turns red automatically before I select it or anything. But I think you answered my question in that the theme I selected requires the Play button to turn red automatically to distinguish it from other buttons. I wouldn't mind it turning red when I would press enter or something to play, like for a second to change color to know that I cliked it, but what bothers me is that it's red the whole time which off sets the color scheme that I'm trying to make on the menu. Thanks again

  • Button change color on select, then change back

    I have 3 buttons, named but,but2,but3. What I want is if you
    click a button it changes color to show what page your on. But when
    you click a different button now that one is highlighted and the
    original one goes back to the original color. Here's the code.
    but3.onPress = function () {
    _root.createEmptyMovieClip("container", 1);
    loadMovie("banner3.swf", "container");
    container._x = 0;
    container._y = 0 ;
    I figure I have to add some kind of if statement?
    }

    I got it. I added this code for each button.
    but.gotoAndStop(2);
    but1.gotoAndStop(1);
    but2.gotoAndStop(1)

  • Two boolean buttons with colors and text?

    HI,
    I need two boolean buttons which will represent a power switch. So one will be ON and one will be OFF, but I need the text to be right on the button and I also want the buttons to switch colors. I have found only one or the other property (text on button or color) but not both on the pallette. Am I just not looking at the right buttons/properties? Please recommend what I should be using. (i.e. when ON is depressed I want it to be green, and OFF to be grey and viceversa)

    Programatically, there are two attribute nodes, one of them is strings, which will accept an array of 4 strings, being the following:
    1-OFF state
    2-ON state
    3-ON to OFF state (when latched or switched until release)
    4-OFF to ON state (when latched or switched until release)
    The other attribute is Colors, which is composed of an array of clusters of two numeric or color constants(controls):
    1-OFF sate foreground and background
    2-ON state foreground and background
    3-ON to OFF state foreground and background (when latched or switched until release)
    4-OFF to ON state foreground and background (when latched or switched until release)
    Hope this helps

  • [Dashcode] Image as button, has grey background when pressed

    Basically what I have, is button that uses transparent PNG image as the selector to play a sound clip when pressed. All works as intended, but when I press the button/image, the rest of the "work area" gets kinda highlighted in grey, with rounded corners.
    How do I remove this "effect"?
    Shouldn't overthink things: naturally it's shaded as it's button, using plain image as the trigger works as I wanted it to.

    In Cp4, did you play with the slide quality settings in the Slide properties dialog. If so try setting all the slides to high(or optimised) quality and publish the project.

  • Dynamic button change color on click and reset the unclicked buttons

    Hi,
    I have have 3 buttons created dynamically from JSON file.
    When I click on any of them the color is changed to red. (this is good).
    But when I am going to click another button the previous red that I have clicked earlier doesn't change to it's grey statement, except from the last button which is the only one that works (is changing between red and grey).
    If for the JSON make variable for the index e.g.(0,1,2) is working, but I want to make it work without index it. I want to make it with symbol's attr.
    here is the files if someone can give it a try.
    Dropbox - hover.rar

    At stageCreationComplete I have it as a function, but it doesn't work correct.
    I want to know why.
    The problem is that when I use getJSON, it creates the ChildSymbols and keeps in memory only the last record (index).
    So, I believe that I need to count the indexes of the JSON files and store it perhaps.
    What I mean.
    My JSON structure:
      {     "title" : "Central",
            "category": "",
        "image": "images/thumbs/models/central.png",
        "large": "auto-2f-kent-large/0.png",
            "frame": "frames-large/0.png",
             "jsonf": "auto2fk.json"
      {     "title" : "Telescopic",
            "category": "",
        "image": "images/thumbs/models/telescopic.png",
        "large": "auto-2f-til-large/0.png",
            "frame": "frames-large/0.png",
             "jsonf": "auto2ft.json"
      {     "title" : "Glass",
            "category": "",
        "image": "images/thumbs/models/glass.png",
        "large": "auto-glass-large/0.png",
            "frame": "frames-large/0.png",
             "jsonf": "autoglass.json"
    it has 3 index. And on ChildSymbol I give the attr as .attr("id", item.title);
    If I make index.length it will give me 3 as number.
    But if I make item.title.length it will count the letters of its Word, the result will be (7,10,5).
    How Can I make it to count the word itself an give me 3 as a result?

  • E-mail button changes email address when submitting

    Hello,
    For some reason when I try to e-mail my form when I hit the submit by e-mail button in the Send Form that pops up the e-mail address that the form is supposed to be sent to is different than what I have set it up to be on the form. I have tried creating the e-mail submit button using the e-mail button from the standard library and by using a regular button and changing it to a submit button, but it does not make a difference.
    Can anyone tell me how to get it to not change the e-mail address when I try to submit my form? The e-mail address I have entered it to be sent to is: [email protected] but when I go to submit when testing my form it adds an "a" onto the end of association so the e-mail address is changed to: [email protected]
    this means that when I submit it the form does not go to my inbox because the email address is wrong, even though the e-mail address is entered correctly in the Object palette in LiveCycle Designer.
    Thanks
    Tamara

    Hi Tamara,
    It seams to be a glitch with your version of LiveCycle Designer. It should work if you manually change the auto-generated script instead of using Designer's dialog. Here's how you can do that:
    1) Select your email submit button and open the Script Editor (Ctrl+Shift+F5)
    2) Make sure you select the 'click' event or 'Events with Scripts' filter at the top left of the script editor window next to 'Show:'
    3) Near the end of the script (line 57 and 59) you will see 'mailto:' followed by the faulty email address you were seeing.
    4) Change it to what you need it to be (both lines)
    I have an earlier version of Designer, so I can't test it myself, so let me know how it works for you.
    You can also find it edited here. I also made your tables flow for you.

  • Mountain Lion change color profile when use discrete video card

    MacBookPro mid 2010. Update Samsung SSD 830.
    Mountain Lion 10.8.2 just installed (new installation).
    Reset PRAM and SMC. Done. No result.
    Try with GfxCardStatus. No result.
    When the system uses the discrete video card changes the color profile.
    I'm not the only one with this problem.
    Someone managed to solve the problem (really)?
    I DO NOT ACCEPT COMMENTS OR ANSWERS USELESS.
    Sorry, but slightly altering after losing three hours in forums where no one ever answered ...
    Thanks.
    Stefano.

    Let's see...
    Sounds like you're running into an expected issue if you make an alias to removeable media.  The same thing would happen if you made the alias to a folder on a DVD-R disc or CD-R.  If you eject the original, you disable the alias.
    If you copy the entire SD card volume to your drive, the PRIVATE package should copy across.  Then, as a folder on your hard drive rather than a volume on removeable media, you could make an alias to the STREAM package for quicker access later.
    I'm pretty sure that Handbrake, like Prmeiere Pro, can see the MTS files directly.  That is, it's not dependant on the other folders in the PRIVATE directory sturcture.  As such, you could copy the contents of the STREAM package to another folder on your drive.  Just be mindful of the default MTS file names if you're using more than one SD card (you don't want to accidentally copy 00001.MTS from one card over 00001.MTS from another card).
    As long as Handbrake sees MTS directly, you could even rename the MTS files after you've copied them.
    On a side note, I almost always archive my SD cards with the data structure intact.  More often than not, that file structure is important to corretly access the video stored within that structure.  If something unexpected happens while working with the MTS files, it is good to have the original file structure to go back to.  Although, SD cards are getting to be so low cost that sometimes I just label the SD card and store it for archiving.

  • Change selected row when press tab

    Hi
    I use JDev11.1 with ADF, i have grid in my jsf page, this grid are updatable, i need when i press tab and go to next record set selected row that cursor on it, how can i do that?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    one option is to add a clientListener to the input text fields, intercept the tab key and then use a serverListener component to reference a managed bean method that
    - sets the row currency to the next row
    - PPRs the table so it shows the selection change
