    Default Invisible Button turns White when moving my Mouse

    Hello guys

    I got the following problem:

    When I start my GUI, the Window displays as it should. But as soon as I move my Mouse over the invisible Button it turns white and stays like that until I close the window.

    Two pictures to show you the problem:

    NetBeansProjects2.rar
    NetBeansProjects3.rar


    Tip:
    The invisible Button is called bMute

    I want the button to be transparent --> I want the window to stay the way it is in Picture Nr1.
    I programmed the Button to be transparent, so I don't get why he turns white...

    Can you explain what the problem is? You describe what the code does when it is executed, but don't say what you want it to do.
    If you don't understand my answer, don't ignore it, ask a question.

    Oh sure, I want the button to be transparent --> I want the window to stay the way it is in Picture Nr1.

    The posted code does not compile without compiler errors. The errors need to be fixed before the code can be executed for testing.

    Please make a small, complete program that compiles, executes and shows the problem.
    Do not post the code for the whole project. I don't use an IDE for testing code.
    If you don't understand my answer, don't ignore it, ask a question.
