Changing text color

[Bj?rn S?rensen]

I have made a text button with Insert>Control>Field.
How do I change the text color on mouseover?

For field members you can set the foreColor of the entire member, or words (or
even more). This should get you started:

put member("field").foreColor
-- 255
member("field").foreColor = 5
member("field").word[2].foreColor = 15

Always a good idea to check the manual for this sort of stuff. The manual is

Simple question with a simple answer I'm sure.
How do I change my text color?
When I highlight the text and go to the tool bar I have a box with a black T in it. When I checked the help section it says the box should be solid black and if you click on it you would have the option of choosing a color.
I am obviously not understanding the help.
Is ther something different I have to do?

I knew this would be simple.
Thanks for your help!

Open the swatches palette. Select your text colour from there.
