Hmm...very Windowsish...well, you could do a few graphical buttons that
either update the form objects, or update a window rectangle, etc., by
moving the objects around or loading a different picture, or whatnot.
You'd just have to draw the bitmap, then place the buttons on top of the
window or form. This function really isn't necessary unless you're
emulating a Windows program(and yes, I see the hypocracy here...as I've
been arguing the validity of an "Exit" button in certain situations for
the last day, and getting slammed by generally all kinds of people who
won't ever need or buy my software, unless they become police, bartenders,
warehouse people, bar bouncers, field sales reps, sales support, store
clerks, etc.).
If you have a really good reason to do this, then great, but why don't you
just use some menu options and save yourself the screen real estate? If
your clients don't want to do the menu thing, then that's understandable,
but most people use the menus anyway. It seems like a fairly major UI
issue, as it would take > 1 graphical button to accomplish, and could
clutter up a good chunk of the screen.
(To everyone else...see, I'm not THAT bad...=))
