Does anyone know how to get rid of the blue highlights that surround default push buttons and other gui elements??? I tried editing the resource "Global elements --> Text Fields ---> Clock Text field" in theme park because that's the only thing I could find that looks vaguely like those highlihts. The warning near the element said it might not change anyway, but am I even at the right resource???

I've noticed the blue highlights are a lot less intense when the appearance prefs are set to graphite, but they are still there, even after swapping out a grayscale version of the resource in ALL the clock text field resources. (BTW, is clock a typo for "click"???)

Help!!

System Prefs --> Keyboard & Mouse --> Keyboard --> turn of full keyboard access.

Dam....and I wanted to do things the hard way. Thanks moose!!!

Some areas still highlight, but most of them don't now. I'm still wondering what resource controls that, though

@ Jay Condon
I'm pretty sure you've themed the right resource, I've done the same. After all, the warning says it all.
@ rhytmicmoose
What a clever trick, thanks for the tip.
