Changing and Resetting Button Colours

[bensuffolk]

I need to be able to colour a button based on a condition. I know I can do this by sending a command to it e.g, bg_color=red or some other colour. But what I don't know how to do is to then revert that colour back to the theme colour.

Is these a reset type command, or a way to read the existing property of an object?

Failing that, does anybody know the colour of a button when using the Material Dark Theme?

Is there a reset type command

There isn't:

• You either need to get the original bg_color first and store that.
• Or remove and recreate the button without a bg_color.

or a way to read the existing property of an object?

Send the p12.bg_color command without any parameters

Perfect, if I can read a buttons colour first that’s all I need to be able to do.
