I want to be able to help my users visualize which buttons content they are seeing by having the button they have selected change to a different color. Once they select a new button, the first button goes back to original color and the new button will change color.

Ie. Theres 5 buttons total on the screen.
Button 1 (Original Color is Green) is selected , color of Button 1 changes to Blue....

Button 2 is Selected, Button 1 now goes back to Green, and Button 2 becomes Blue...

Button 3 is Selected, Button 2 now goes back to Green, and Button 3 becomes Blue...
Etc.

Works! How would I go about setting the color back to the default color upon transitioning to another screen? Because when I navigate back the last button I pressed is still the "selected color".
