Button with icons

[litdev]

Nice example originally from Papa Lapub, who was a big contributor to the original SB MS forum.

For me I had to make a couple changes, see PPWP247.000-0.  First the crop size was too big for the W7Orb.png image (causing an error) as I downloaded them, and second the GW size (with resizing set off) was too small to show the buttons (I doubled it size).

The main parts are:

LDShapes.BrushImage - to make an image brush
LDControls.SetButtonStyle - to set different styles for mouseover, click etc - the styles are defined by brushes that can be of several different types, including image

Interestingly I also found this FDNW187.000, by you Martmen I think using SetButtonStyle, just with colours, not images

Finally, a super simple example to run:

Code:

GraphicsWindow.Show()
LDNetwork.SetSSL()
LDGraphicsWindow.PauseUpdates()
button = Controls.AddButton("Press Me",50,50)
brush1 = LDShapes.BrushGradient("1=Yellow;2=Red;3=Yellow;","H")
brush2 = LDShapes.BrushImage("https://litdev.uk/game_images/uploads/bee.png")
LDControls.SetButtonStyle(button,brush1,"Orange",brush2,"Black","Gray","Transparent",10,"True")
Controls.SetSize(button,80,80)
LDGraphicsWindow.ResumeUpdates()
