I was not the person interested in rectangular frames. I picked up this thread when I realized that using a custom button font could be a solution to the problem of proper button highlighting on color Palms. I was looking for a solution that was compatible with OS3.0. The usual method of overlaying a bitmap with a button works ok in black and white, but does not highlight properly in color. The conclusion so far seems to be that this is possible with PilRC, but there is no way when using Constructor to specify a custom font for a button. Since I already have a significant number of resources defined using Constructor I was hoping to avoid a wholesale conversion of everything to PilRC. After a quick look at PilRC my conclusion is that it is more powerful than Constructor, but not as user friendly.
