Making a GUI with round buttons?

Post by CopperCircle »

Is it possible to make a GUI with round or odd shape buttons, that are skinned with an image? Does anyone have an example?

Thanks,

I'm currently working on a pretty large skin library for use with purebasic... It automatically subclasses all controls on a window... Sadly, it will be quite some time before it's ready for release...

In the mean-time I believe there was an example of OwnerDrawn Buttons a while back...
Just search for "CostumButtons"... I think he meant "CustomButtons"...
It's a sorta gadget for bitmap buttons... I believe this is what you're looking for :)

That's pretty smooth lookin' Paul :)

Is there a demo of PureVision that lets you try out PureSkins? When I tried it out there didn't seem to be any skin options... *Interested*

Paul,

Could you please make the source code for the Buttons program available on the PureVision website? I own PureVision and I would like to see how you are doing some things.

Thanks,

@Paul,

I agree. I see you doing some great things but I don't know how to get started.

Thanks

@ PolyVector

Only the registered version can create your own PureSkins. The demo version can use the premade skin in the "DemoFiles\PureSkinDemo" folder. (which comes with the Help File download)



@ ebs & RJPComputing

Sure, registered PureVision users can download the source files from
http://www.reelmedia.org/purevision/private/Demos/
This example makes use of a number of PVGadgets.
(Registration email contains the User/Password for the Private folders)
