Shortcut Properties - Button tab

Use the Button tab to change the button options for a shortcut control. You can create text buttons, use custom images as buttons, or create hidden controls that work with scripts.

Text: Displays the control as a standard square gray button with black text. The information in the text box below this option identifies the label that will be displayed on the button. This text can be customized and updated whenever necessary.

Image: Displays the control using a custom image. For example, in place of the standard button with black text, the control displays an image of a button that is in a different shape and color.

Displays the Browse dialog. From this dialog, you can browse to the image you want to use, select it, and copy it into your project. Both Windows bitmaps (.BMP files) and icons (.ICO files) can be used with controls.

Hidden: Does not insert the control as an object in the topic (control is not visible). Use this option if you are adding a script to the topic that will display the control. For further information about how to use a script with a control, talk to your developer.
