Use buttons with variables and color coding

Hi all.

I would like to use buttons with variables and color coding. When I click on one button should the button change color and if there are actions like "select in field" it should be active. So if I click on another button the button should get back to the "in-active color".

Attached a example that does not work that well.   

Thanks in advance!

Why don´t you add more set variable actions according to your needs?

If you do clear the last clicked button is still active. Do you have a solution for that?

Add a Set Variable action to the OnAnySelect document trigger to set vColor to 'White' (or anything that's not red, green or blue) when no selections are made : if(len(getcurrentselections())=0,'White',vColor)

Hi, Bjorn.

Look at this blog on buttons.

It has working examples you can copy that will change colour when used.
