Highlight selected button

Fri, 13 Dec 2013 14:32:39 GMT

I have created a few filter buttons which reflect different ranges for a Budget field, ie 1 - 5000 , 5001-10000 and so on. When clicking the button the functionality works fine but i was wondering if there was a way to highlight the button that had been selected. Currently my buttons are blue and i was looking to make the one selected green or something.

You can set a variable as a button action and set the button colors according to your variables (or use the ranges selected also to determine the button color, if possible).

See for example these discussions:

Use buttons with variables and color coding
change color of text on button after click event
Color of a button when it is activated
