Re: What are the ideal dimensions of a button
Should I use the Golden ratio..
Should I use a percentage of the Form surface..
What about multiplying the Height by 3.26 to calculate the width..

Re: What are the ideal dimensions of a button
For many years, I sized my buttons to match those used on the Options Dialog in MS Word.
If it's good enough for Our Friends In Redmond ...
Regards,
Phill W.

When in doubt, use Microsoft's formal UI guidelines:
