Why my status bar doesn't have any colors and it's not aligned with the buttons?

I created a field of type selection, this is my Python code:

'state': fields.selection(
    [('draft', 'Draft'),
    ('cancelled', 'Cancelled'),
    ('invited', 'Invited'),
    ('rejected', 'Rejected'),
    ('awaiting', 'Awaiting'),
    ('not_coming', 'Not coming'),
    ('coming', 'Coming'),
    ('absent', 'Absent'),
    ('attended', 'Attended'),
    ('completed', 'Completed')],
    'State', size=16, readonly=True),

I'm trying to see it as a status bar, and this is my XML code:

<form string="Event Meeting Registration" version="7.0">
    <header>
        <button name="move_to_cancelled" string="Cancel Registration"
         states="draft,invited" type="object"/>
        <field name="state" nolabel="1" widget="statusbar"
         statusbar_visible="draft,invited,rejected,awaiting,not_coming,coming,absent,attended,completed"/>
    </header>
    <sheet>...</sheet>
</form>

The result: I can see the button and the status bar, but the button is a line above the status bar, and the status bar is not highlighting the current state. For example, I open a record with th state draft, and this state is not highlighted, is grey like the other ones, and you can't know which state the object is in.

How can I align the button to the status bar? I tried to put the button and the field state between div tags, and even set their styles with foalt left and right, but when I did that, I wasn't able to see the status bar (I think the button occupies the whole line and the status bar was behind the button).

How can I see the current state highlighted?

Thank you in advance.

Ok, I got the solution to both problems.

In addition to having state in the header, I had it in the form sheet too, this way:

<sheet>
    ...
    <field name="state"/>
    ...
</sheet>

I had to remove that line, and when I did, both problems were solved at the moment. Hope it helps to anyone.

NOTE

I was able to solve it that way in OpenERP 7, but now, in Odoo 8, I have just faced the same problem and this time I was able to solve it putting the buttons and the field state inside the same <div>. So I guess if you have this problem, here you can find two possibilities in order to fix it.

You can make it invisible if you don't want it to get displayed.
