Problems
Ulrich Bottger_ posted April 13, 2010

I’m trying to create two toggle-button; Button_1 and Button_2.

Expected behaviour

When clicking on Button_1 it should change the stae of Button_1 to “Selected” and the state of Button_2 should be “Normal”.

Clicking on Button_2 should do the opposite.

The problem is that when I click on Button_1 the state is not changed to “Selected”.

I can change the state of another button to “Selected” but not the one I’m clicking on.

Is this intended?

It seems to be interfering with the Mouse Over and Mouse Out “built in” to the button.

I found a way around:

However, it would be a lot easier if it worked as I expected 🙂

It is because the button will change its state when you move the mouse over and out.

To simulate the toggle buttons, you will have to avoid the state changes caused by the mouse events. The easiest way is to use a transparent element to cover the button, and set the buttons’ state in the “Element Clicked” event handler of the transparent element.

    Your solution is a bit simpler than mine... :D

    Thanks.
