Hello.
I know this is a basic question but I can't figure out the process of changing the colour of a 3D generic button while maintaning it's shape. Eveytime I select a new colour the button changes colour but the edges become square.

Any tips would be appreciated.

Thanks
Bidge

Hi Bidge,

You can't do that. Either you use native buttons or you use buttons that are drawn by the Revolution engine. Only the latter can be colorised.

Another option might be to use icons in the form of a colorised button in combination with transparent buttons.

Best,

Mark

Thanks Mark.
That's interesting. I thought there would be a way to do it and it was just a case of "New User Blindness". I'll try doing up my own buttons.

Many thanks
Bidge

I made my own textured buttons a while ago. The stack on this page might help. Have a look at this:
