# Change button color when disabled

I use the following [button](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/63/how-to-add-button-in-datagridview-in-csharp-dot-net) and when isDisabled is [true](https://yourviews.mindstick.com/view/81326/boycott-chinese-products-dream-will-come-true) the button is [transparent](https://www.mindstick.com/forum/1784/wpf-webbrowser-on-transparent-window) (here its always true for the example but in my [program](https://www.mindstick.com/blog/12337/scaling-up-your-mentorship-program) its bound to command...) what I want is that when the button is disabled the [color](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/77/how-to-split-form-background-color-in-c-sharp) remain the same just ligther, how can I achive that?

Hi Ben,\
Try this:

```
<Style TargetType="{x:Type Button}">    <Setter Property="Foreground" Value="#ffffff"/>    <Setter Property="Background" Value="#f0ab00"/>           
<Style.Triggers>        <Trigger Property="IsEnabled" Value="false">            <Setter Property="Background" Value="#f0aa00"/>       
</Trigger>   
</Style.Triggers></Style>
```
