Impossible to say without seeing your configuration.

Works for me with this config (copy and paste into FvwmConsole if you
don't believe):

  Colorset 23 Transparent, fg black
  Style FvwmButtons ParentalRelativity

  DestroyModuleConfig FvwmButtons-Test: *
  *FvwmButtons-Test: Geometry 100x100+100+100
  *FvwmButtons-Test: Colorset 23
  *FvwmButtons-Test: (Swallow "FvwmApplet-DigitalClock" \
    `FvwmScript FvwmApplet-DigitalClock 23`)

  FvwmButtons FvwmButtons-Test

Regards,
Mikhael.
