I have a button with an image as background. When the on TouchDown I want to change the background image, and on TouchUp, restore it to the first image. This was done quite easily, however on TouchDown, the button gets a white overlay (clickEffect), and I want to remove this effect, how is this possible?

This should illustrate the problem better:

Hi @Franken_Apps, welcome to the Thunkable community.

Is rhe `raised` property of your button set to true or false?

I’ve already tried both, it does not have any effect.
