Title: Changing the text-color of a GUI-button at runtime [SOLVED]
Post by: TheMagician on Wed 26/01/2005 13:30:37

Hi everybody.

If I create a new GUI button in AGSedit it reads "New Button" in black letters.
I know that I can change the color of the text using the GUI-button-properties box.

However, is there a way to change the text color of a button at runtime using a script command? (Let say I want to make the button blink)

It sound quite simple ... but I couldn't find anything about it in the manual.

Thanks in advance,

Stefan

It's not possible at the moment. See tracker entries

You could work around it by using two button controls for example, turning them on/off alternately (will be easier with the Visible property of AGS v2.7).

Thanks strazer.

I always forget to check the tracker.

Your workaround sounds good to me (just getting used to AGS 2.7)
