Three State Button

[pcs800]

Am I missing something or is there no way outside of coding with LAF, to get a button to have three states? Normal, hover, and click

@pcs800 You can use a 6-state filmstrip, just make sure to set the numStates to 6.

@HISEnberg 6 state... Why not 3?
What would the 6 states be? 2 of each of Normal, hover and clicked?

@pcs800 Oh I see, you meant for a toggle. I am using a momentary, so 3 shold work. Thanks

@HISEnberg I created a three image film strip. It doesn't work. If I set the properties panel to numStrips 3, it shows the default Hise button. If I set it to numStrips 2, it shows the film strip, but it's off when clicked of course.
What is the proper method?

@pcs800 Using 6 images (3 states, and then copies of them, stacked, seems to have worked

@pcs800 The six states are on, on hover, on down, then the same for off - not necessarily in that order

@David-Healey Yes, I figured that out. It's odd, though, that you have to use 6 images for a momentary which has no permanent on position.
