We have three cameras in our setup and I have created a Streamdeck profile with an array of buttons to use shortcuts to adjust the cameras - pan, tilt, zoom, etc.
I have also created three buttons, one for each camera, to set a dynamic input to indicate which camera is to be adjusted.
So far so good. It all works perfectly.
What I would like to do is to change the colour of the appropriate button when a camera is selected (and reset the colour of the other two not-selected camera buttons) so that I can tell at a glance which camera is selected. I have tried activators but cannot figure out how to achieve what I want.

Thank you everyone for your suggestions.
I was doing everything correctly but after a couple of hours of testing and trying various combinations I eventually discovered that if I add an icon to the Stream Deck button then the activator doesn't change the button colour, or the possibly the button background colour changes but it's hidden under the icon.
