Examples
The following example shows three buttons that respond to clicks in three different ways based on their ClickMode property value.
Hover - When the mouse pointer hovers over the first button, the foreground color of the button changes.
Press - When the left mouse button is pressed while over the second button, the foreground color of the button changes.
Release - When the mouse button is pressed and released while over the third button, the button resets the foreground color of the other two buttons to their original color.
