Bevel Button Text Placement Constants

You can use the ControlButtonTextPlacement constants to specify the placement of text in a bevel button, in relation to an icon or picture. These constants are passed in the inData parameter of SetControlData and returned by GetControlData . They can be used in conjunction with bevel button text and graphic alignment constants to create, for example, a button where the graphic and text are left justified with the text below the graphic. The ControlButtonTextPlacement constants are available with Appearance Manager 1.0 and later.
