ButtonTexture not loading

Code:

SK.Frame = CreateFrame("Frame", "SK Test")

SK.Frame:SetFrameStrata("TOOLTIP")

SK.Frame:SetWidth(100)

SK.Frame:SetHeight(100)

SK.Frame:SetPoint("CENTER",0,0)

SK.Frame:SetBackdrop(SK_Styles.Main)

SK.Frame:SetBackdropColor(Color("Red"))

SK.Frame:SetScript("OnEvent", SK.Events)

SK.Frame:Hide()



local button = CreateFrame("Button",nil,SK.Frame)

button:SetBackdrop(SK_Styles.Main)

button:SetPoint("TOPRIGHT")

button:SetHeight(32)

button:SetWidth(32)

button:SetNormalTexture("Interface\Buttons\UI-Panel-MinimizeButton-Up")

button:SetPushedTexture("Interface\Buttons\UI-Panel-MinimizeButton-Down")

button:SetHighlightTexture("Interface\Buttons\UI-Panel-MinimizeButton-Highlight", "ADD")

button:SetScript("OnClick", function() SK.Frame:Hide() end)

It don't show the texture... Help?

You need to escape the slashes in your file paths, or else Lua will skip right over them when reading through.

Code:

button:SetNormalTexture("Interface\\Buttons\\UI-Panel-MinimizeButton-Up")

button:SetPushedTexture("Interface\\Buttons\\UI-Panel-MinimizeButton-Down")

button:SetHighlightTexture("Interface\\Buttons\\UI-Panel-MinimizeButton-Highlight", "ADD")

Is there a major programming difference between " and ' in LUA? ( I primarily code PHP, and " allows for variables to be inserted and escape characters to be used, while ' is a litteral )
Thanks! :)

no, " and ' work the same

however there is a token that allows for that

[[Interface\Addons\MyAddon\media\myTexture]]

and

[=[Interface\Addons\MyAddon\media\myTexture]=]

just make sure there are as many equals on both sides, i dont know if theres a limit too it, but you probably wont need that many :)
