A button like in MS Internet Explorer:
  • inherited property Caption (is therefore automatically supplied at design time with CMBtn1, CMBtn2 and so on)
  • caption can contain an ampersand ("&") followed by accelerator char
  • WordWrap property for Caption
  • automatic cutting of Caption with trailing '...' if needed
  • HelpContext property
  • PopupMenu property with selectable mouse button (left like in Internet Explorer or right like in other DELPHI components)
  • automatic display of popup mark possible
  • no problems when calling windows help at OnClick event
  • no problems when help window is active and mouse leaves button
  • can be positioned on TPanel
  • ALT F4 (to close window) works
  • button layout control as known from TBitBtn
  • uses three glyphs for the three possible states
    1. enabled with mouse over button
    2. disabled (with or without mouse)
    3. enabled without mouse
You can assign a single glyph bitmap to the glyph property, the two additional glyphs are created and stored automatically! You can save the created 3-glyph- bitmap and edit it.
You can evaluate this component before installing (EXE demo included)
You can compile and modify the demo source without having installed TCMBtn (dynamically created).
