All:
Thanks Jan and Dennis.
Here's what works:
1. The [ On_Before_Start | On_Before_Design_Action ] EEPs of the form
include the line:
SET VAR vbtn_HardCheese TEXT = ('Hard'+(CHAR(013))+'Cheese')
2. The [ On_After_Start ] EEP includes the line:
PROPERTY btn_HardCheese CAPTION .vbtn_HardCheese
3. The button control [ btn_HardCheese ] has the caption: 'Caption' just to
show the text alignment during the design process
Appreciate your help.
Bruce

No brute force needed
In your after start code add something like:
set var vBtnCaption = ('One' + CHAR(13) + 'Two') property btnWhatever
CAPTION .vBtnCaption

Subject: [RBASE-L] - Bit-Button Caption Word-Wrap Fail
All:
RBase eXtreme 9.5(64) Latest
I've tried two ways to word-wrap a caption on a bit button.
I'd like the phrase 'Hard Cheese' to wrap on the button as:
Hard
Cheese
Entering this as the Caption String:
('Hard'+(CHAR(013))+'Cheese')
... produces a Button Caption display of:
('Hard'+(CHAR(013))+'Cheese')
With a variable setup in EEPs: [ On_Before_Design | On_Before_Start ]:
SET VAR vbtn_HardCheese TEXT = ('Hard'+(CHAR(013))+'Cheese')
... entering this as the Caption String:
&&vbtn_HardCheese
... produces a Button Caption display of:
&vbtn_HardCheese
??? and thanks again.
Bruce
