My image looks fine when it is on a normal button. When I change the state of the button to disabled the image is stippled. Is there a way to change this default behaviour?

This is intended in order to provide visual feedback. If you use a
ttk::button, you can provide your own disabled image instead. Create a
disabled image e.g. grayscale or toned-down version, and then pass a
list to -image. YOu can specify multiple images for different states of
the button, so that should be
"normalimage disabled disabledimage" (untested)

Hello Christian,

Thank you for the answer. I didn't know Ttk had this feature. Maybe I was a little too fixated on the documentation of the non-Ttk button.
It is definetly good to know this feature exists, although I will have to see if it is worth the effort to implement this into my application as I rely on Tk buttons currently.

Wow, I did not know this trick, awesome !

Here is an example with the disabled state on tk 8.6:

% ttk::button .b -image {::tk::icons::information disabled ::tk::icons::error}
% pack .b

shows the information icon

% .b state disabled

shows the error icon

GREAT !!!

Thanks Christian,
Harald

Hello Harald,

thank you for the example. It was of great help to quickly test the Ttk feature in question.
