@klopstock-dviz thanks!

Would you like to change your inactive or active button? Right now the active button takes the default from materialize. The inactive buttons' background color is set in the .btn-group>.btn-inactive and .btn-group>.btn-inactive:hover classes. To override the in-active color, you edit these classes.

To update the active button you can do one of two things:

1. update the .btn-group>.btn and .btn-group>.btn:hover with the background-color set to your preference AND set !important on the background color attributes in the .btn-inactive classes. (jsFiddle)
2. create two new classes for your active button .btn-group>.btn-active and .btn-group>.btn-active:hover

With option 1 you'll need to make sure you don't unexpectedly change other elements using the .btn class. With option 2 you'll need to make sure .btn-active is added to the appropriate elements

Hope that helps!

Hi AJLeonardi
Thank you for your reply
It technically works as expected, but it seems the material design is lost, I find my self with flat buttons
Perhaps I shoud try to dive into materialize css spec, or drive the colors with JS

Best regards

Sorry I couldn't be more help, @klopstock-dviz. Do you have a screen shot or a jsfiddle that shows what you mean? In any case, if you figure out a solution to your issue, please post here =)

Works like a charm. Thanks!
