A sample :

REDEFINE BTNBMP oBtn ID 10 OF oFld1:aDialogs[1] 2007 ;
FILENAME c_path + "\Images\select.bmp" ;
LEFT ;
PROMPT " &Select " + CRLF + "Test" ;
FONT oBtnFont ;
ACTION MY_ACTION()
oBtn:lTransparent = .t.
oBtn:cTooltip := { "Select the 1. " + CRLF + "Color for " + CRLF + ;
"Gradient-Design","Color-Select", 1, CLR_BLACK, 14089979 }

Thanks for the quick response but not sure the code works with my code

Code: Select all  Expand view

   REDEFINE BUTTON oBtn2 Id 4002 OF ODLG2 ;     
   action(oDlg2:End())

If I change it to:

Code: Select all  Expand view

 
 REDEFINE BUTTON oBtn2 prompt "&select"+CRLF+"test" Id 4002 OF ODLG2 ;                 
   action(oDlg2:End())

it doesn't work.

We have 3 Button-Classes :

Button
ButtonBMP and
BtnBMP

Class Button doesn't support Linefeed.

For BtnBmp You can use a Resource for Resource-Workshop like:
CONTROL "", 804, "TBtnBmp", 0 | WS_CHILD | WS_VISIBLE | WS_TABSTOP, 181, 211, 31, 12

My new Buttontool supports all 3 Styles.
Maybe a good Idea, to support Multiline-Prompts ( Linefeed ) as well.

Thanks again...I'll try it tomorrow and let you know.

My Solution for the Tools :
It is easy now, to test Multiline Prompts.
A activated Checkbox will force a CRLF between the 2 Gets,
otherwise the first get is trimmed + 1 char Space + the 2. Get in 1 Line.



A easy way to test, if Buttonsize, Bitmap and Fontsize work together.

Any code available to create a multiline button?

This is a working sample:

Code: Select all  Expand view

#include "Fivewin.ch"


#define CR CHR( 13 )

#define BS_MULTILINE 8192


FUNCTION MAIN()

    LOCAL oDlg, oBtn

    DEFINE DIALOG oDlg

    @ 1, 1 BUTTON oBtn PROMPT "&Close" + CHR( 13 ) + "the dialog";
           SIZE 50, 30;
           ACTION oDlg:End()

    oBtn:nStyle = NOR( oBtn:nStyle, BS_MULTILINE )

    ACTIVATE DIALOG oDlg;
             CENTER

    RETURN NIL

Enrico,

I wanted to include Your Solution to the other
Tests of the Tools ( Button and ButtonBMP of the ButtonSkin-part ).
Is it possible, to use it for Resources to ?
I don't get it working.

REDEFINE BUTTON oBtn5 PROMPT TRIM(aBTNTEXT[5][1]) + CHR( 13 ) + "Multiline-Test" ID 210 OF oDlg70
oBtn5:oFont := oTextFont
oBtn5:nStyle = NOR( oBtn5:nStyle, BS_MULTILINE )

You have to add 8192 as button style in the resource.

Thanks for the solution on the multiline button.
Its not working..using borland resources.
You indicated to uwe to add 8192 as a resource style.
Can you explain how to do that.

Went into the text of the dialog to edit style change but can't figure out how to do it on the button.
You additional help woild be appreciated.

[Enrico Maria Giordano]

As an example:

Code: Select all  Expand view

PUSHBUTTON "", 201, 10, 10, 65, 40, BS_MULTILINE | WS_TABSTOP

Perfect.
Needed to edit the rc file outside of borland.
Borland doesn't compile properly with the code you provided.

But it works great.

Thanks again.

[Enrico Maria Giordano]

Just use

Code: Select all  Expand view

PUSHBUTTON "", 201, 10, 10, 65, 40, 8192 | WS_TABSTOP

and it will compile fine.

Enrico,

with normal ButtonStyle it works fine.
Using a ButtonSkin, it doesn't work.
