Hi,<br />
<br />
I want to write some code that will change the color of a button with a mouseEntered. &nbsp;I can change the color ok but I want it to return to it's original color on the mouseExited event.<br />
<br />
I thought I could create a new variable using<br />
<br />
Color orig;<br />
<br />
orig = b1.getColor &nbsp; &nbsp; (b1 being the name of one of my button variables)<br />
<br />
Unfortunately this doesn't work. How can I save the original color of the button so I can revert back to it on mouseExited?<br />

Hi,

I want to write some code that will change the color of a button with a mouseEntered.  I can change the color ok but I want it to return to it's original color on the mouseExited event.

I thought I could create a new variable using

Color orig;

orig = b1.getColor     (b1 being the name of one of my button variables)

Unfortunately this doesn't work. How can I save the original color of the button so I can revert back to it on mouseExited?

JButton getColor?

Java is a platform-independent, object-oriented programming language and run-time environment, designed to have as few implementation dependencies as possible such that developers can write one set of code across all platforms using libraries. Most devices will not run Java natively, and require a run-time component to be installed in order to execute a Java program.
