| **<fs medium>color</fs>**: The background color of the button, a float from [0,1]. Any numbers above 1 are treated as 1. Should be a V4. Example: V4(1 1 1 1) would be white. V4(1 0 0 1) is red. V4(0 1 0 1) is green. V4(0 0 1 1) is blue.

An opacity of 0 is fully transparent/see-through, a value of 1 is fully Opacic/"not see through".))).
