5-4: 

When BSelect is pressed over a button, the appearance of the button changes to indicate that releasing BSelect will activate the button. If, while BSelect is pressed, the pointer is moved outside of the button, the visual state is restored. If, while BSelect is still pressed, the pointer is moved back inside of the button, the visual state is again changed to indicate the pending activation. If BSelect is pressed and released within a button, the button is activated, regardless of whether the pointer has moved out of the button while it was pressed.  

The visual state of a button offers a cue to the user about whether the button will be activated when the mouse button is released.
