Create Large Buttons with .NET

Ruffy85 — Fri, 13 Oct 2017 05:47:58 GMT

Hello Forumsmembers,

how can i create Largebuttons through the Api? For Example the Button Place First View under Place Views in the Drawing Enviroment.

Actually i use Commandcontrols.AddButton (cmd) with 24x24 and 16x16 pictures for my Buttons, but for the older guys its to small 🙂

Thanks for help

I have my large icons drawn at 32x32 and when you add the button to the panel, specify it to be the large icon style. I'm not sure if this is what you were after but that's as big as I can make the icons as standard. There may be a way to adjust the overall scale but i'm not sure.

' This following adds the button to the panel with the 'large' option enabled. This is the ',True' after adding the button definition.
oPanel.CommandControls.AddButton(button_definition, True)

Regards, Matt.
