My image looks fine when it is on a normal button. When I change the state of the button to disabled the image is stippled. Is there a way to change this default behaviour?

 
This is intended in order to provide visual feedback. If you use a
ttk::button, you can provide your own disabled image instead. Create a
disabled image e.g. grayscale or toned-down version, and then pass a
list to -image. YOu can specify multiple images for different states of
the button, so that should be
"normalimage disabled disabledimage" (untested)

Hello Christian,

Thank you for the answer. I didn't know Ttk had this feature. Maybe I was a little too fixated on the documentation of the non-Ttk button.
It is definetly good to know this feature exists, although I will have to see if it is worth the effort to implement this into my application as I rely on Tk buttons currently.
