如何突出显示在vb.net中单击的按钮

Question

Highlight, just like when you hover over to the button, its being highlighted. But how do you retain the highlight when you have clicked the button?

Answer 1

I don't know exactly why do you need this behaviour, but maybe you could use another control instead of Button. You could use CheckBox, with the appearance of a button . You can change this appearance in the properties window of the checkbox.

If you don't want to use this option, just let me know :-)

Answer 2

It is not much of a functional spec. When it is supposed to turn off? Anyhoo, use a CheckBox, set Appearance = Button, AutoSize = False, TextAlign = MiddleCenter.

Answer 3

If this is WPF or Silverlight, you can simply re-template the Button control , and change the "Normal" state to match the "MouseOver" state. Not sure what you're using though?

Answer 4

To highlight a button you have to use two buttons.

1. a button with red in color (example-red_button)
2. a button with faded red in color(example-faded_red_button,visible as false)

Place one above the other.

On the mouse down event of the red_button:

red_button.sendtoback
faded_red_button.bringtofront
faded_redb_button.visible=true

On the mouse up event of the red_button:

faded_red_button.sendtoback
red_button.bringtofront
red_button.visible=true
