You can't set the width, but you can set the rect. It's not a screen
coordinate rect, it's local:
set the rect of member "some button" to rect(0,0,200,13)
The Y coordinates won't do much, the height is controlled by the text
height of the font you've used for the button name. The top left of
the sprite will remain where it is, and the width of the sprite (and
member) will change to be the difference between the first and second
X coordinates.
