Is this "Hidden camera" ?

With ResizeGadget() of course...

I think you misunderstand. I need to move the gadget AFTER ResizeGadget has been used so I can position the gadget in the middle of the screen constantly with the new size of the button being the width & height of the string the button uses.

I think you need to reformulate you're question as what you are asking, Bisonte allready answered...

Do you mean the actual screen or the window? (Still not sure of you intent with this

)

For Window?:

Code: Select all

OpenWindow(0,0,0,300,300,"",#PB_Window_SizeGadget)

ButtonGadget(0,0,0,100,100,"ThisAndThat")
ResizeGadget(0,(WindowWidth(0)/2)-(GadgetWidth(0)/2),(WindowHeight(0)/2)-(GadgetHeight(0)/2),#PB_Ignore,#PB_Ignore)

Repeat
  event=WaitWindowEvent()
  If event=#PB_Event_SizeWindow
      ResizeGadget(0,(WindowWidth(0)/2)-(GadgetWidth(0)/2),(WindowHeight(0)/2)-(GadgetHeight(0)/2),#PB_Ignore,#PB_Ignore)
  EndIf
Until event=#PB_Event_CloseWindow

You can use #PB_Ignore in place of X, Y, Width and Height if you don't want to modify it.

The ResizeGadget() command can size and move the gadget at the same time. It's not just for resizing.
