Thanks but that sets the background of the button in its resting/un-selected state.
As I said, I'm looking for a way to set the background color when the button is pressed (selected). When the button is pressed, its background color changes to some shade of gray. That is the background color I'm talking about. If there were a setSelectionBackground() method for AbstractButton as there is for table and list then that would do the trick. However, I can find no such method for button. Is there some way I can set a model to do what I want? -- Marie. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~/\~~~~~~O-O~~~~~~~ A.
