bingo, just add the applyTheme() method

class BitmapButtonField extends ButtonField {

        protected void applyTheme()
        {

        }        
}

Arhimed & Rafael, thanks for you help!

Use this tutorial to create your own custom field.

Control the appearance of your field in paint() method.

Yes, this is possible by extending Field. You just need to create 2 images (one for a focused state and one for an unfocused state). Just don't draw the border on those images.

A sample implementation can be found here.

As Arhimed said, you should extend Field. This will give you the maximum amount of customization over how the button looks.

Here's an example of a customizable button I've created: https://github.com/HeshamMegid/BlackBerry-Custom-Controls

You could use it as it is or modify the code further to suit your needs.
