Button anomaly?

Pull a button from the tool palette. Open the inspector. Change it from "Push Button" to "Rounded Rectangle".


The effect is what you saw? Change it back to "Push Button". It reverts.


If you change the size of a standard push button, at least on Mac as Phil pointed out, it will change and you cannot just change it back by restoring styles. You have to reconstitute exactly for the engine to make it a virgin push button again. I upset this now and then, and find it easier to just make a new button, copying scripts if need be.

Subject: Button anomaly?


I have a stack showing a lot of buttons. These are of type 'standard' and they 
have rounded corners and a kind of graduated grey fill, without my setting any 
special properties for them individually. However I have a button in the same 
stack with nominally the same properties that doesn't have rounded corners. If I 
change its style to 'roundRect' I lose the grey fill.

Of course I can just start again, creating a new button from scratch and 
transferring the script of the original button - but can anyone say how this 
came about? I can't see any special settings of any properties of any of the 
buttons in the stack.

TIA 

Graham
