Is there a way to make a button change appearance when "hot" (pressed)? Say
change font size? If the button is in reality an image (png, etc) can it
reload or be replaced with another image that does show it's hot - but
only when pressed? I wish I could send/attach a sample, but I'm getting
an error message each time I try to attach a file: "The upload directory
is full. Please contact an administrator...".

What screen are you trying to do this on? The main menu? There is support for changing the background image based on what button is pressed.

Where would that support be? Is it a value or entry in the
skin ini file? I guess one image would be "normal" (unpressed)
another image would be "hot" (pressed)? Tkx for the response...

There isn't support to swap the button images out but it can load a new background in the menu depending on what button is pressed. This allows you to add a highlight using the background.

Thanks. Is there a written procedure somewhere to do this?

BTW, I have 3 more questions in the Support and Bug Reports sub-board
going back to Sept 1. I suppose Barcrest would be the only one who
could answer these (please...).

I have noted them down and I will be hopefully able to get something out tonight. Friday - Sunday is terrible for me to get time to do any work on it as I have a 2 Year old to look after. I will however look at the issues you pointed out after she has gone to bed and hope to get a new beta out before I go to bed. The Beta I have already has a couple of bug fixes in so there will 100% be an update tonight.

For the menu backdrops they are hard coded, these are document in the skintool guide.
