Button Genie

The Button Genie generates all the Xdialog code for a button. The Button Genie provides:

• bug-free Xdialog code

• a view of the Xdialog code as it is composed

• an interactive WYSIWYG view of the finished button

• a list of basic button styles

In addition, there are menus to define:

• every aspect of the button’s label and or image, including font, color, style, and positioning

• every aspect of the button’s style, including fill colors, borders, and flyover effects

• bubble help

• an associated event for the button

• an enabling expression for the button

When working on a Xbasic script in the Code Editor, right click and select Genies ... > Xdialog > Button Genie ....

Example

The Button Genie dialog box defines all the attributes of an Xdialog button. The results are displayed in two ways:

• a preview to the right of the genie, and in

• the Xdialog Code window at the bottom of the genie [Picture]

Finally, clicking the Insert Code in Script Editor button inserts the Xdialog code into your script.
