DONE: On Screen Button That Sends Keyboard Commands

BTW, when I choose File->New, I see a preview that shows a button labelled "Test button".  I don't suppose it's easy to have no button displayed, but still with some sort of blank preview...

Yeah, at first I couldn't get it to behave with no buttons available, but I guess I should go for an empty (no buttons) window, instead of a non-functional button. I'll see what goes best.

I'll see if I can defer a final decision by breaking something else in WB ;)

;D

Both of you, thanks for the heads up :up:

ewemoa:
XP SP3 WB 3.3.0.0 WBE 0.9.1.1

Using image specified in .wbuc file with .ico file in same directory as WB and WBE exes, the image of the .ico is displayed in preview of WBE, but not when using .wbuc file from WB.


--- Code: Text ---[Settings]left=-1top=-1closebutton=1border=1taskbar=1vertical=1[Buttons]button1=New Button 1command1=-sub -?caption1=New Button 1image1=Video2MP3.ico
On a related note, noticed that image of .ico doesn't appear to get scaled appropriately.  Specific case was .ico extracted from Video2MP3.exe -- 128x128 button size shows whole image, but smaller sizes tried (e.g. 48x48) show a portion of the image.  Would be nice if scaling worked :)

Also, any chance of supporting specification of icon from .exe?

Did you place the .ico file to the same directory as where the .wbuc file is?128x128 button size shows whole image, but smaller sizes tried (e.g. 48x48) show a portion of the image.  Would be nice if scaling worked

Ah, a feature request :up:, I'll investigate.

Sorry if this was unclear.  WB, WBE, the .wbuc file, and the .ico file all live in the same directory.  Is that clearer?

Good luck with your investigation regarding the scaling and thanks for considering the exe / icon feature request :)

Ath:
I tried to solve a few issues reported by ewemoa, and also implemented his feature request:

* Showing an icon in WBE preview but not when running WB: Undetermined, the same code is 'included' for both exe's. Was the .wbuc/.ini file saved?
* Would be nice if scaling worked: Scaling is not directly supported for button-images, investigation continues
* any chance of supporting specification of icon from .exe?: Implemented in this release :)
