GUI buttons

Hi,

I created a GUI with some buttons and I noticed the nice blue color which appears over each button when the mouse is over it. I added to each button some image, with

 set(button,'cdata',image);

but now the blue effect is lost when I put the mouse over the buttons. Is there a way to keep this effect after adding an image to a button?

Thanks,

Razvan

Please check these functions:

• FEX:mouse motion handler
• FEX: rollover-effect-on-pushbuttons

Thanks Jan,

I was able to use the second function, but it has some bugs. If I put 2 buttons next to each other and I move the mouse from one to another, in the end both remain "pushed" (the second image remains active for both).

Thanks though.

Can you have a mouse move callback where it changes the image, with that set() command you used, whenever the mouse moves over the button? One image would have a blue tint. By the way, I don't see a color change - my buttons stay gray no matter if the mouse is over them or not. Maybe it's an operating system feature and you have a different operating system than me.

I use Matlab 2011b in Win 7 SP1 x64. I don't know how to attach a callback for when the mouse is over a button. I only know to attach a callback that starts when the button is pressed...
