Hi list,
I need some advice about how to accomplish something in REALbasic. In
our application, we have a column of buttons that navigate several
screens. I.E. each button jumps you quickly to a different window. That
window may or may not be visible at any given time and pushing the
button makes it visible and gives it focus. There are times that very
important information may be waiting on one of those screens. We need a
non-intrusive way (no pop-ups) to draw attention to the buttons without
being annoying.
In the current version of our product, written with another development
tool, we just changed the color of the text of those buttons to red. It
was something that drew attention to the button without getting in the
way of people working and without being annoying. We need something
similar that works on both the Mac and Windows (and ultimately Linux).
We really want to use push buttons because they look super nice on both
platforms.
Since changing the color of text on a buttons seems to be considered a
sin just below drowning nuns, what are my options?
Thanks,
Steve Goodrich
