B4J Question B4J Snapshot2 - How do I set a button background colour?

[AlexOfOz]

Help please - I must be missing something.

I am trying to set the background colour of a button using Snapshot2, but it simply doesn't want to work. I'm following the instructions as best as I know how, and have been trying now for some weeks, but no success.

An example of my code is bt2(40).Snapshot2(fx.Colors.Red) where bt2(40) is a button.

What am I missing or not understanding?

Snapshot grabs an image of what is on the button, it doesn't set the buttons background colour.

OH, that would certainly explain it.

Thanks for the clarification; I appreciate it. Back to the drawing board.

If using a standard button

Dim b1 As Button
...
    CSSUtils.SetBackgroundColor(b1,fx.Colors.Red)
...

if using a B4XView type button

    Private Button1 As B4XView
...
    Button1.SetColorAndBorder(xui.Color_Green,1.0,xui.Color_Magenta,10.0)
...
