Hello,

If I understand your question correctly, you want to know how to disable a button, without making it invisible to the user. To do so, use the SetCtrlAttribute function.

To disable the button: SetCtrlAttribute (panel, button_ctrl, ATTR_ENABLED, 0);

To enable the button: SetCtrlAttribute (panel, button_ctrl, ATTR_ENABLED, 1);

You can use the ATTR_ENABLED attribute for almost any control type.

ATTR_ENABLED refers to timers only, disabling them and stopping the callback.

You should be using ATTR_DIMMED

[RobertoBozzolo]

The simplest way is to use SetInputMode (panel, control, mode);

Setting mode = 0 will disable the button and grey it out (the same as SetCtrlAttribute with attribute ATTR_DIMMED and value 1); setting mode =1 qill enable the button.
