Widgets and Color

[SpEcIeS]

The last few days have been a GUI experiment time. Now applying color to panels seem to be easily done with: GameMenu.mainpanel:SetObject("backgroundcolor",Vec4(0.5,0.5,0.5,0.5)), however this does not seem to work with the button widget.

What would be the method of changing color with widgets such as buttons?

you would need to create a custom button script for that.
just take the Button.lua from Scripts/GUI/ and create a copy and edit it.

set the new script with either Widget::SetScript() or Widget:Create().
for info on how to change color you could use Panel.lua as a example.

Since this was something that was not even considered, this information that you have provided will be most helpful. Many thanks.
