Hi everybody

i've a problem with the image set on the button. if i setEnabled(false) on
the button, the button
lost the image and makes a dark-grey 16x16 square on the button.

does anybody know how to control that - or is the something like a bug? ;-)

thanks in advance
patrick

i'm no expert on this but couldn't it be that the button takes another image
when disabled? Then you would need to supply that image as well.

Actually, only toolbar buttons get different images for the disabled and the
'hot' state. With ordinary buttons, the behavior you noticed seems to be
intended. A workaround in your case would be to make a toolbar and use a
ToolItem instead of a button, with all 3 images supplied.
