Hi @Anonymous

Use a context variable in your button's OnSelect property as UpdateContext({var:"Yellow"}) and set the Fill property of the label to var. To set the default fill to White for example, in the OnVisible property of the screen containing the button UpdateContext({var:"White"}).

So I need to do three changes right ?
Two for the button and for the text.

-UpdateContext({var:"Yellow"}) on the select part of the button
-UpdateContext({var:"White"}) on the onvisible part of the button
- var on the fill part of the text ?

It depends on what you are trying to change the color of. I would recommend using the RGBA() function for setting colors and fills.

Yellow is RGBA(255,255,0,100), White is RGBA(255, 255, 255, 1). To set the default fill color of a control on a screen, click on the screen and select the OnVisible property. Put UpdateContext({var: RGBA(255, 255, 255, 1)}) in this property. Put a label on the screen and set it's Fill property to var. Put a button on the screen and set its OnSelect property to UpdateContext({var: RGBA(255,255,0,100)}).
