<h2>Button Properties Dialog</h2>
<p>Here's what the various dialog fields do:</p>
<ul>
<li><b>Function: </b>This allows you to attach a function to
the button. The functions are described in the <a
href="function.htp">Function Reference</a>. Calculator
specific functions such as "plus" or
"minus" always start with a letter from
"a" to "z". Other functions, such as
"_PlayMacro", start with the "_"
character. This was done to separate layout functions
from calculator functions.</li>
<li><b>Parameter:</b> Some functions require a parameter. For
example, the <b>_PlayMacro</b> function needs the name of
the macro to play.</li>
<li><b>Alt. Keycap: </b>This field lets you dictate how you
want the button to appear. If you leave this field blank,
then a default value will be used. If the <b>Format</b>
field is "Text", then the text string you
specify here will appear on the button. If you set the <b>Format</b>
to "Bitmap", then the bitmap file (*.2bp) image
will appear on the button. </li>
<li><b>Font: </b>You can select a <b>small</b>, <b>medium </b>or
<b>large </b>font to draw the text on the button. The
small, medium and large fonts can be changed by the <b>Edit</b>
command from the top menu bar while in <b>Program Mode</b>.</li>
<li><b>Align:</b> You can have the button text or bitmap
image aligned <b>left, center, </b>or <b>right.</b></li>
<li><b>Format: </b>This is the format for the button, it can
be <b>Money, Text</b>, <b>Real Number</b>, <b>Integer, </b>or
<b>Bitmap.</b> Most of the time, you will want to have
this set as <b>Text</b> or <b>Bitmap. Money, Real Number</b>
and <b>Integer</b> are used with the _<b>Variable</b> or <b>_Display
</b>functions.</li>
<li><b>X, Y, Width, Height: </b>These specify the position
and size of the button. You can also change the position
and size by dragging the button, or the edge of a button.</li>
<li><strong>Key: </strong>You may choose a single keystroke
to press this button. Scroll through the list, or just
type a letter, number or punctuation mark.</li>
</ul>
