Yes it's a good idea, but Arnaud is right, the bevelbutton makes a loosy
pushbutton. Oh well, maybe we should think of making REALbasic BUG FREE!
first before we add on anymore items to the big wish list. lol

Good idea, indeed.
But pushbuttons remain plain, sadly. (default pushbuttons may be
difficult to reproduce with a bevelbutton).

Reading what you folks said, gave me an idea. Why not make a bevel
button with an icon that is text. Then change the color of the pic as
required.
Perhaps a little bit harder than the solution given earlier, but a
thought.

Yes, true as in the BevelButton, but most Normal PushButtons need
some
kind of text. So I am saying, why not have all the text attributes
for
the controls that use the text format.
It's like I can add the text of "STOP", and if I want to make it
Bold,
Italic, or even Underline I can. But I can NOT make it RED... WHY
NOT?
It doesn't make sense having one but not the other is all I am
saying.
But what you must remember is that colored text pushbuttons are
probably
the exception rather than the rule in most OS's.
How many times have you seen this attribute in the applications you
normally use? I have none in the several dozen that I use regularly
and
can't remember any that have any color other than black.
Even Bold, Italic and Underlined are exceptions, IMHO, but probably
are
supported in cross platform apps within the OS's APIs. Color is most
likely not supported as Rb would probably include it if it were.
However, there is still the question: why is text colour not
supported in pushbuttons on most OS's?
I believe it's because the rest of the button is fixed. If the text
colour could be changed, this may lead to an unreadable text.
Anyway, a MacOS X default button with red as text colour would be
wonderful!_______________________________________________
