Printing to another line

| Is it possible to set the text of a gadget to more than one line? For example, the text for a button, I may want to say: Click here to accept. In VisC++, I could set the above text with something like: "Click here\nto accept.", where \n = a new line. Is there an equivalent way to do this in B+? |

| Too bad no one here in Blitzville is smart enough to answer my question... :) |

| I never tryed something like that until now, but perhaps you can try with something similar to visC++. For example, try to set the text with : button_text$ = "Click here" + chr(10) + chr(13) + "to accept" Perhaps it works. Try all the combination of chr(10) and chr(13) - that is, only 10, only 13, first 13 and then 10, and so on. Hope it helps, Sergio. |

| The correct order is chr(13) + chr(10) |

| Regardless, it doesn't work. I also tried sending the BM_SETSTYLE message to the button with a BS_MULTILINE parameter, but it didn't seem to help either. <shrug> |

| There is some wierd redraw issue with b+. When you set the style via sendmessage, try also resizing the button it will probably update. |
