- First, look in the file BWCCAPI.RW (it should be in your DOC subdirectory). It
- and the other .RW files can be helpful sometimes. In general, you need to:
- 1) define the button class as "BorBtn" (ctrl-dblclick to get this dlg box)
- 2) create 3 bitmaps for each button (copy & paste helps here)
- Button Control Id + 1000: Normal VGA image
- " + 3000: Pressed VGA image
- " + 5000: Focused VGA image
- (add 1000 to each for EGA)
- Your bitmaps should include the frame and shadow for each button (use the
- Resource Workshop on itself to see how Borland makes theirs.
-
- I may be forgetting some details, so check those .RW files. Also, I can't
- overemphasize how helpful it can be to use the Resource Workshop to look at the
- resources in an .exe file.
-
- Hope this helps,
