Using bevel filters to draw button states

As you create graphics for each button state, you can apply preset Live Filters to create common appearances for each state. For example, if you are creating a four-state button, you can apply the Raised filter to the Up state graphic, the Highlighted filter to the Down state graphic, and so on.

To apply preset Live Filters to a button symbol:

1. With the desired button symbol open in the Button Editor, select the graphic to which you want to add a Live Filter.
2. Click the Add Live Filters button in the Property inspector.
3. In the pop-up menu that appears, do one of the following:
   • Select Bevel and Emboss > Inner Bevel.
   • Select Bevel and Emboss > Outer Bevel.
4. In the pop-up window that appears, select a button preset filter. These are described below.

   Button preset filter	Description
   Raised	The bevel appears to rise from the underlying objects.
   Highlighted	The button's colors lighten.
   Inset	The bevel appears to sink into the underlying objects.
   Inverted	The bevel appears to sink into the underlying objects, and the colors lighten.

5. Repeat steps 1 through 4 for the remaining button states, giving each state a different button preset filter.
