Re: Buttons Multicoloured gridlayout
Use an array of Colors: Color[] theColorArray = {Color.red, Color.blue};how i can set all the buttons different colours.
Access each element in turn inside of the setBackground(theColorArray[theIdx]) method.
Make sure the array has enough colors in it or make sure the index to the array: theIdx is reset to 0 when it gets to the end of the array.
If you don't understand my answer, don't ignore it, ask a question.

Re: Buttons Multicoloured gridlayout
Do you understand arrays and how to use an index with them?
By changing the value of the index from 0 to the length of the array-1 the code can access each element in the array in turn. (in turn means: the first one, then the second one, then the third one, etc)
