Button Flat Background Color

Pedro Sousa's icon

Hi,

I'm not able to use a flat background color on in the buttons, instead it always keeps a gradient. I want to create a UI with flat buttons, how can I do this?

Thanks in advance,

Can you do an example, select it, go to "Edit/Copy Compressed" and paste it here?
What is the Max version?

Olá Pedro

I'm using version 8.0.8
This only happens when i use some sort of dark grey in the background. When using objects like Panel i'm able to choose between Gradient and Color Fill, when in buttons I'm not able.

Attached a simple version of a button and a panel.

Thanks!

Hi, Pedro. Are you from Brasil? Portugal?
Ok, I see what you mean. You were referring to the "textbutton" object.
The "button" object is the toggle and it doesn't have a background gradient fill.
It's unfortunate that it doesn't appear to exist much consistency in terms of design between UI objects.
A workaround might be the "tab" object in button mode.
