BITBTN dialog element
Syntax
DIALOG ADD, BITBTN,<name>,<top>,<left>,<width>,<height>,<filename>, <caption>,<tooltip>,<style>
Description
The BITBTN dialog element is a flat Explorer-type button, which shows a raised boundary when the mouse pointer is over the button.
The filename is the name of the bitmap to be displayed in the button. It should ideally have 256 colors or fewer. The bitmap can be loaded from a resource compiled in to the executable file. In this case, the bitmap should be located in the project folder or the resource folder specified in the project options, and the filename should be prefixed by a hash '#' character.
The caption is optional, and appears below the bitmap if present. The tooltip is also optional, and defines the text that appears in a tooltip when the pointer is over the button. If no tooltip text is present, the button name is used instead.
The BITBTN generates a <name>BUTTON event when it is clicked.
If the button's name is HELP, a button-click event is automatically generated if the F1 key is pressed.
