Darker shade on button push?

Hey all,
I am very new to LiveCode and the MobGui.
I have built an app, however, the buttons seem lacking.
Is there a way to make the button change colors when pushed, similar to how other apps work in the IOS?
Ex. Change from a light blue to a dark blue when pushed.
(livecode 4.6.4 MobGui .27)
Ideas?

- Jay

In the button's property inspector, turn on the autohilite property. This is usually the default setting but you may have accidentally turned it off. Some types of buttons hilite differently, for example, radio and checkboxes use "hilite" to toggle their active status. What type of button are you using?

If you are using MobGUI buttons you can set the touch colour in the MobGUI control palette. Just select the button and you'll see the properties you can change.

Gerry,
Thanks for the info.
I see in my MobGui pane that the colors are set differently.
However, when I use the sim, or load it on a actual device, the colors never change.

Using the Property Inspector, the "Hilite one radio button at a time" is checked off.

Thoughts?
