Xailer & OZ Software

Hi Ignacio, Jose,
In one of my appl. I have a toolbar with a some buttons. One button has a
menu attached and therefore a small black arrow appears on the right side.
However, when positioning the text BELOW the image the arrow is positioned
more or less in the middle (of course still on the right side of the image).
To my opinion it looks nicer if the arrow is positioned at the right side of
the button and in the center (between top and bottom). What do you think?
Another question I have is of there is progress in the implementation of
native support of Sqlite?
Kind regards,
Stephan
PS
Xailer rock's!!

As far as I know the arrow it is painted by the OS, so the only way to
change it is to write a custom control.

It is almost finished.

Jose,
Thanks for clarifying and good to hear that Sqlite is getting so close!!
Xailers dbf browser (see picture) has also a button with a dropdown menu.
How can I get the same kind of button?

Stephan

Just assign a menu to it.

I did connect a popup menu, but then the arrow appears as discribed in my
first mail.

Yes you are right.
These are the "guidelines" to achieve what you want:
* If the button has OnClick event assigned, it is a normal button.
* If the button has a menu attached but OnClick is empty then it is a
"wholedropdown" button.
* It the button has a menu *and* the OnClick event is assigned then ... Try
it
