The ButtonState command controls which states of the window titles and title buttons are used. The default is to use all four states: "ActiveUp>", "ActiveDown>", "InactiveUp>" and "InactiveDown>" (see ButtonStyle and TitleStyle commands). The bool argument after the key word controls if the designated state is used ("True") or not ("False"). The "ActiveUp" state cannot be deactivated. If no arguments are provided or the given arguments are illegal, the default is restored.

If ActiveDown argument is "False", no different button style for the pressed down buttons used, instead "ActiveUp" state is used even when button is pressed.

If Inactive argument is "False", focused and unfocused windows look similarly, the corresponding "Active" states are always used.

If InactiveDown argument is "False" (only applied when Inactive is "True"), the pressed titles and title buttons in non-focused windows are drawn using "InactiveUp" or "ActiveUp" states depending on the values of the other key words.
