Hi!

I have a number of Bitmapbuttons in the Description of a Generator Object and I would like to catch the Events when they are pressed down.

Some posts on Bitmapbuttons suggest it works to listen for the MSG_DESCRIPTION_COMMAND Message, when the Bitmapbutton is set to BUTTON in the Resource file, but this Message does not appear to be sent.

Also there is a function in the BitmapButton CustomGUI to set a callback, but I don't know how to set it when I use the BitmapButton in a Resource. How do I get to the pointer to the actual BitmapButtonCustomGui?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Best Regards
Timm Dapper

Sorry if any previous post was misleading. The messaging works slightly differently for bitmap buttons. This is how you would detect it:

    
    
    Bool MyNode::SetDParameter(GeListNode *node, const DescID &id, const GeData &t_data, LONG &flags)  
    {  
      switch(id[0].id)   
      {   
      case BITMAPBUTTON_ID:   
        {  
          if (flags&DESCFLAGS_USERINTERACTION)  
          {  
            /// user clicked on button  
          }  
          break;   
        }  
      }  
      return ObjectData::SetDParameter(node, id, t_data, flags);   
    }
