Two questions about buttons.

[TBURKE2]

Hi! I have two quick push button questions.

Long story short, we are trying to make our own cascading buttons, because we want a way to change the button size and colours, which I haven't figured out how to do on the default cascade buttons.

We have two problems. First, how do we left align text on push buttons? The Property Editor doesn't seem to work. And secondly, is it possible to have a script run when we click OUTSIDE of a button (so we can close our cascade)? I haven't figured out a way to handle closing the cascade once it's open other than clicking on the button a second time, which gets rather annoying.


Thanks!

Long story short: Wrong approach

Seriously, this is a hack. If you need a special kind of cascade (popup menu), then you should look into implementing this as an EWO (Qt, C++).

Optionally, get in contact with your sales contact and see if we can implement something for you (e.g. enhancing the std. cascade)

You could try with a stylesheet.
