Overview

A button provides a push button, with optional icon and/or text label. When pressed, the button widget sends a SEL_COMMAND to its target. Passing the BUTTON_TOOLBAR style option gives buttons a “flat” look, and causes the edge of the button to be raised when the cursor moves over it. Passing BUTTON_DEFAULT allows the button to become the default button in a dialog, when the focus moves to it. The default widget in a dialog is the widget which will accept the Return key when it is pressed. The BUTTON_INITIAL flag makes the button the default widget when the focus moves to a widget which can not itself be a default widget. There should be only a single button in the dialog which is the initial default; typically this is the OK or Close button. The option BUTTON_AUTOGRAY (BUTTON_AUTOHIDE) causes the button to be grayed out (hidden) if its handler does not respond to the SEL_UPDATE message. This is useful when messages are delegated, for example when using a multiple document interface, where the ultimate destination of a message can be changed.

Events

The following messages are sent by FXButton to its target:

SEL_KEYPRESS

sent when a key goes down; the message data is an FXEvent instance.

SEL_KEYRELEASE

sent when a key goes up; the message data is an FXEvent instance.

SEL_LEFTBUTTONPRESS

sent when the left mouse button goes down; the message data is an FXEvent instance.

SEL_LEFTBUTTONRELEASE

sent when the left mouse button goes up; the message data is an FXEvent instance.

SEL_COMMAND

sent when the button is clicked.
