How would i write a code for my pushbutton in a gui that flips or changed the background color on the pushbutton back to original?

I am creating the memory game using a gui and im using multiple pushbuttons to display the different colors. When i click on the button it does change to a different color but i need it to go back to the original color if the two cards chosen are not the same. How could i do that?

You'll find answers to tricky stuff like this on Yair's web site "undocumented MATLAB": http://undocumentedmatlab.com/?s=button+color

Store a variable with value 1. Then simply negate it everytime you run the callback function. And using an if-else statement you can change colours. To get the default color of pushbutton use get(handles.pushbutton,'BackgroundColor'). I hope its clear.

This is what i had for my push buttons set(handles.pushbutton3,'BackgroundColor','blue') x3 = get(hObject,'Background')

could you give me an example of how to store that variable and use the if statement?
