Color bugs with live.button, live.menu and live.dial

Just some minor color bugs I've found with three live interface objects-
live.button
Border Color and Border Color (Focus) don't work. Changes made in the inspector don't take hold.
live.menu
Text Color for live.menu doesn't affect displayed text in main box, only text in dropdown. Text in main box is always black.
live.dial in panel display style
These is no option for Triangle Border Color (No Focus) like there is for live.gain~ and live.slider. Instead the triangle gets a thin border of whatever color you set the text to.
Max 5.1.0 (41180) | Live 8.1 release version | OSX 10.5.8 on MacBook Pro 2.16GHz, 2GB

The Border Color and Border Color (Focus) only work in Learning mode (MIDI or Key Assignment), which is quite useless... but they work ;-)
live.menu
Text Color for live.menu doesn't affect displayed text in main box, only text in dropdown. Text in main box is always black.
This was fixed in 5.1.0 (42108). Your build is not the official 5.1.0.
live.dial in panel display style
These is no option for Triangle Border Color (No Focus) like there is for live.gain~ and live.slider. Instead the triangle gets a thin border of whatever color you set the text to.
In the next incremental, live.dial will have it's own attribute for the triangle border color.
Thanks.

Haha! Is there a reason I should use live.button over a regular button anyway? It seems like a basic bang will do just as well, and it's fully configurable in looks. Perhaps live.button is optimized for Live banging?

Thanks! I did not realize. I'll get that sorted now.

Excellent! Thanks for the fix and setting me right on the release version, Emmanuel.

live.button can be automatized. And you can decide when it triggers (transition from 0 to 1, 1 to 0 or both ways).
