I've been having quite the time trying to figure out how to make buttons do a certain thing, and help or an example of an entire button would be greatly appreciated.

This is what I want the button to do....

Ok, for instance, I want the button when clicked to turn white, and do the following commands: c 'detect invis';c 'detect magic'

The button is named "Detects". Then, when the things wear off, The button goes red.

The wear off signs are "You no longer see invisible objects."
And.... "You no longer detect magical auras."

If either one of those wears off, the button should go back to red. Then when I click it, it goes white again... Is this possible? I want to make it easier to know if something wore off in the heat of combat or whatnot. Any help is appreciated. Email me with the result if you want, because I can't get online very often lately. Jebikoje@hotmail.com Thanks a ton.

I would make two toggle buttons, nne for invisible and one for auras

Button up would be red and have the command, button down would be white.

Make triggers for "You no longer see invisible objects." and "You no longer detect magical auras." that use the #bu command to automatically press the buttons.

Add a command to change the button color to white:
c 'detect invis';c 'detect magic';#CALL %btncol( Detects, white)

Use triggers to change the color to red:
#TR {You no longer see invisible objects.} {#CALL %btncol( Detects, red)}

Detects must be the button's ID and not just its caption. You could also use the button's number.
