If you can use the geneva 9 versions, you might try them. When I asked Staz about it a year or two ago, I was using the Geneva 9 versions, and it was regarding checkboxes. His response was pretty much "that's the way it is" (Chris shoots straight). But I wanted to be sure, so I made a couple test buttons and now both radio buttons and checkboxes are made fully gray with this statement: BUTTON#500,_grayBtn,"Button Text",@rect,_checkbox_useWFont Am I remembering wrong? I don't think so, because now I'm using OS8. I believe OS8 has made checkboxes and radio buttons gray along with their text. Could still be wrong, PB
