Changing background color on Buttons...
Please can somebody tell me how to change the color of a Button or a Button-link? I can change the Font and Border colors but cannot change the grey background. I have looked in the HTML and CSS files and can see those characteristics but that is all. If I add background-color in CSS next to the Font and Border color, it has no effect??
Thank you.
Thank you.
Can you share a link?
I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

Hi Nick,
Unfortunatley there is no way to change the color of the buttons directly within the program however there are some predefined classes within the coffeegrinder css. Below is a list:
orange-button
black-button
disabled
green-button
grey-button
blue-button
If you change the class of your button to one of these it will change your color. These and other cool coffeegrinder classes can be found here:

If you want to make it a specific color other than these you have to create a custom.css stylesheet and modify these classes colors.
Hope this helps. Maybe I can do a video tutorial on how to do this

Maybe you have to set the button colors after export?
I don't see anything in the RLM properties panel either. Just border and text color. If you choose a div, a background color picker appears, but if you switch to a button, it disappears.

It seems it might be easier to use RLM for just the layout and then do the visual styles after export.

Also if you have created your layout using the Bootstrap 2 setup there are classes you can assign for the buttons from there too. You can see more on these settings here http://getbootstrap.com/2.3.2/base-css.html
Thanks all so much fpr ypur prompt answers! I have used Steve's orange-button class and it looks pretty good! I will try out the other options also.
Thanks
