1. I must not have said that the button shape, size, look, and drop shadow 'must' be that image I used. This is in order to emulate proprietary software written in C used on a hardware device. It is written in C to give a very small footprint in the device.
2. The icon above that button is only 1 of over 5,000 icons that can be used in the device. So combining the button shape with icons in another app is not feasible. Also, the users can add their own icons to that button, another reason for me not to do it in PS etc.
Although your button does what a normal button would do it does not have any of the attributes that my button has. I wish I could do this with a normal button but I can't. My button has the exact attributes as the hardware device. So I am pleased with that but I am not pleased with the naming convention needed because I will be allowing the user to build these buttons using their own icons and then I have to arrange them in grids on the screen. You know like 5 rows with 7 columns, etc.
Also, my 83 has a bit more code that is left over from previous attempts so that would be cut in half to 41 and that is for two buttons so each button has 21 lines and I was hoping to do the same thing in fewer lines AND get the same results.
The background button is one of about four or five used in their machines and I need to emulate the others as well.
Thanks though,
Tom

I would like to share this small stack with you guys.
It shows the two buttons grouped with the code. I think it is important being able to do this.
BUT, my code may be rough and I would love some real good input on this. Maybe better suggestions?

I have made my down state and up state 'base' button as the icons of
those states in a transparent button and it looks great.
I want to link a small icon on top of that button and when the user
clicks with the mouse to send mousedown and up to that button 'through'
the icon.
Rev is not doing this. I tried pass mousedown, send "mousedown" to
button "Button 2" and click at button "Button 2" and none of them seem
to work. The last caused REV to freeze up and not receive mouse clicks
at all.
Should I group them??? should I 'do' something to the icon image???
Thanks Tom
In "Magic Triangle" - to be found among the "user contributions" at the Runrev site - I have used a routine which sends a mouseup-message "through" a field via a "click at" to an underlying graphic.
Maybe this is something that could help with your problem?
