I have a project that is used by several sets of users with slightly differing needs, and it is therefore customised by reading in various values from an .ini file.

One recent requirement has been to (a) have wording on various buttons that differs from the default and (b) have navigation buttons with colours also differing from the default including response to mouse over/down/exit states. On the attached one-page sample project, you can see that when the page is opened, a set of such values are assigned to publication variables (for simplicity they're hardcoded here - normally they would be read in beforehand from the .ini file). There are also 3 graphics representing the 3 mouse states in relation to the button.

On the page, the left hand (green) button is a conventional hardcoded one and the right-hand (blue) one is configured - see actions to change appearance. The blue button works fine with the mouse, but if you hit any key - irrespective of where the cursor is - the button text disappears, and is only made visible again with the next mouseover action. Has anyone experienced anything similar?

Opus Pro 5.5 on Win2K SP4. Many thanks.

If anyone's interested, I resolved this by the crude but effective method of adding in a KeyPress "Any Key" action on each page which invoked a function to re-set the softcoded captions. Still intrigued as to why it happens in the first place.
