Can a graphic BE a command button?

[wengang]

Can I write my own graphic and MAKE it a command button?

I know that I can just write a graphic and place a click procedure on it for precisely the same result, but what I want to know is if the command button can break out of its traditional rectangle and become other shapes (such as circles). Any ideas?

P.S. This is the most active Forum on the internet!

Well it is possible to change the shape..known as a region to any polygon you want...but i dont know if that is what you were looking for if it is...reply and ill see if i can explain

I think that you may want to make two graphics, and place one over the other. When the user clicks on it, make it invisible, so the second pops up showing the clicking effect. At the second click (ie in the click event of the second graphic), make the first visible again.
Got it?

Its a good idea what carlos said. But if i were you, id put alot of graphix into a listbox, and then just choose out of there on the mouse down, up, click, move or whatever event.

Hi

You could take a look at the code used in VB Shaped Form Creator and modify it to your purpose. The program manipulates polygons.
