Bill,

A picture is indeed worth a thousand words! I prefer the VB placement of text.

My best guess is that we're both *sorta* correct ;-) I believe Revolution 'builds' the buttons using the correct theme 'bits', but probably doesn't use the direct API call to do so. 'Course I could be wrong, but it would explain the differences you see as well as the 'mostly supported styles' which is apparent. Certainly a bit of pixel tweaking could bring it in line.

I imagine allowing for the ability to 'add icons' and resize buttons to whatever dimension creates some implementation problems for a 4 gen tool. Frankly, I've not had any problems in any of my shipping apps, but then I'm not the stickler for HIG that you and Richard are.

Does VB allow one to add icons and change the font and font size of a button like this? Just wondering.

best,

-Chipp

Chipp,

I know you didn't mention button styles specifically as being taken directly from the OS, but once you see the following difference it will be one of those details that pop out at you all the time:

Again, *very* minor, probably not obvious to the vast majority of end users, but a dead giveaway that Rev was used to build an app.
