Changing the button text color when clicked

[gkumar]

I have one button with different bitmaps as background, one in normal state and one for button click. But I want to change the text color when the button is clicked. Is there any way to achieve this?

Do a search for statelistdrawable or colorlistdrawable.

' Button text color in blue
button1.TextColor = colors.Blue

Or did you mean in Button Properties in designer

I wanted to change the text color through the designer. But no option in the designer. But I tried to change the text color by code in the button click event, but it didn't change.

Try this:

Sub Button1_Down
   Button1.TextColor = Colors.Yellow
End Sub
Sub Button1_Up
   Button1.TextColor = Colors.Red
End Sub

It may not work on versions prior to v1.92.

That worked, But there is slight mismatch in display time, as I am changing text color in _Down and bitmap through designer.

There is another solution available online based on ColorStateList. Try to search for it. I do not know if the timing will be different or not.

Another option is to embed the text in the bitmaps.
