Can a Button Have non-default BackColor

[Qwerkey]

@Fellippe, I have tries to give a Button a different BackColor.  The color slider works (as for other controls), but the Button itself does not change colour, either in the UI view or at run time.  Am I doing something stupid?

Incidentally, is there a place in the .bas to put code that executes once at run start, but after the form has been loaded (and not associated with any control)?  I placed the following in the  __UI_OnLoad subroutine and the program sticks at 'Initialising'.

Code: QB64: [Select]

1. WHILE NOT CorrectButton`
2.             _LIMIT 60
3.             'Assumes hardware has mouse buttons, value <=5
4.             IF _MOUSEINPUT THEN
5.                 CorrectButton` = False: ButtonNo1%% = 1
6.                 WHILE NOT CorrectButton` AND ButtonNo1%% <= 5
7.                     IF _MOUSEBUTTON(ButtonNo1%%) THEN
8.                         CorrectButton` = True
9.                     ELSE
10.                         ButtonNo1%% = ButtonNo1%% + 1
11.                     END IF
12.                 WEND
13.             END IF
14.             __UI_DoEvents
15.         WEND

Forget that part, I've decided to attach that routine to a Button.  It now works OK, of course.
