Font colour in TButton component

I want to change the colour of the Text, and maybe the background, of a
TButton. If I select the font attributes in the object inspector and change
the colour, nothing happens... anyone know how to change the colour of a
button?

JJ.

        The way buttons look is a system thing determined by the user.
You can use  BitBtn instead.

Alternatively, if you just want to make it look distinctive you _can_ use
the Bold, Underline, or Italic attributes...

        True. But using a BitBtn is no harder than using a Button, and
it allows you to change the color, so if changing the color is what you
want to do then a BitBtn is the thing to use.
