    Custom Button/Container with gradients/glass and glow effects

    I created a nifty CONTROL CONTAINER (yes, like a panel), that can also become a button with nifty glass/glow effects.

    Download it!

    Instructions on how to use it are included in the comments at the head of the control's class...

    **EDIT**

    I have released a new version. It's 3 controls - a button/container, an option button (radio), and a checkbox. All 3 are almost identical in terms of the properties/methods.

    They now all support (and selected by default), Anti Aliasing. You can set what rendering mode for each control by using the "Quality" property.

    In addition, all 3 controls by default populate the commonly used properties so that it's faster to add them to your project.

    In all 3 controls, you can disable the glow effects. Almost everything can be customizable, or you can simply change it yourself. I commented most of it, but I hope you can figure it out easily!

    ****END EDIT****

    It's been attached. No new screenshots, unfortunately.

    I do apologize - I didn't know that the compiled control couldn't be included.

    Please check above for the new, more improved version. The best new feature is now all 3 controls support and use AntiAliasing by default!
