 Hi,



 there are two ShowCaption properties. One TToolButton.ShowCaption and the
 second TToolBar.ShowCaption.

 Also, there is TToolBar.ButtonHeight when you need large buttons.


​Ah, that was it :)

Thanks​

Re: [Lazarus] Large toolbar buttons

Hi, 
 
thinking about it, if now someone wants display Caption, he must:
-set ToolBar.ShowCaptions to True
-set ToolButton.ShowCaption to True
-set some Caption
 
Isn't it to much? Isn't assigning any Caption enough? I thought it is because 
of Delphi compatibility but looking to their docs: 
http://docs.embarcadero.com/products/rad_studio/delphiAndcpp2009/HelpUpdate2/EN/html/delphivclwin32/!!MEMBERTYPE_Properties_ComCtrls_TToolButton.html
seems that Delphi has no ToolBar.ShowCaption, so it is Lazarus invention.
Is there any reason for this property? If no, I suggest to mark it as 
deprecated.
 
Thanks

ToolButton.ShowCaption is True by default, so you don't need to set it.

 -set some Caption

You only need to set ShowCaptions and Captions.

 Isn't assigning any Caption enough? I thought it is because of Delphi
 compatibility but looking to their docs:

The idea is that some button captions can be hidden.

Thanks Mattias,

 I was wondering what the best component was for a tool bar with large
  buttons and images on. I am trying to use the TToolbar component,
 however,
  it doesn't seem to display captions and I can't seem to get the buttons
 to
  be bigger than 16x16?
 
  Any ideas?

 Change the ImageList's Width and Height.


When I change the ImageLists's Height and Width it clears all of the
current images, I presume that because I have to add larger images in now?
Also, when do the captions get displayed?

Yes.

Have you tried ShowCaptions?

Yes, I have. The buttons are linked to Actions so not sure if that makes
any difference?

If you set Caption to '' then there is no text.

Check also ShowCaption of the button.

The caption is set to Add user and the ShowCaption is set to true, but
it's still not showing the text on the button?

Thanks

What happens when you add another toolbar, set ShowCaptions to
true and add a button?

Hi,
 
there are two ShowCaption properties. One TToolButton.ShowCaption and the 
second TToolBar.ShowCaption.
Also, there is TToolBar.ButtonHeight when you need large buttons.
