My 3 part button looks weird

[ron G]

I am using FM 12 Adv.

This button is composed of 3 parts: "Add Patient" text, a + graphic and the green rectangle. I 'grouped' all 3 together.

I decided to add some 'custom style' to this button. I choose yellow for "In Focus". The problem is that when I put the focus over the button, each of the 3 elements 'lights up' as I pass the mouse cursor over it.

Question: "Since all 3 elements are grouped as 1 element, shouldn't the Custom Style apply to all elements as if they were one ?

Thanks

Ron

Wouldn't this have been easier using the Button Tool in Layouts?

Easier? Probably. But, I like the 'control' and ability to edit my buttons which the tool created buttons don't seem to allow.

Plus, even using the 'button' tool, there is the same problem.... multiple objects when mouse overed, highlight individually.... Does FM want it this way?
