You'll want to use a 'conditional alpha' flag for the dimming of the unit frame. You set the alpha values for true/false, along with the variable you want to use to determine the true/false state, and then apply that conditional alpha to the frame.

Healing spells all have a range of 40yrds. If you look in the 'Builtin' folder, you will see a number of range based flags that you can use.

For the button, you could put a border around the button, and then use the same type of conditional alpha flag to color the border. You could also put in a background shader and do the same type of thing with the background. (assuming the button is smaller than the background so that you can see the background changing color)

= F
