Description _ tboudreau 2003-05-22 01:41:17 UTC
Probably this will need custom painting code - a
better
idea than text anyway.
Comment 1 _ tboudreau 2003-05-25 00:55:09 UTC
Implemented.  Note that the buttons can only be centered if
the button width is an odd number.
Comment 2 dpavlica 2003-05-26 10:18:19 UTC
I see..looks, that spaces among black dots are more wide then before.
Is it possible to have design which is in following appendix?

Comment 4 _ tboudreau 2003-05-26 10:53:39 UTC
Since it was nearly impossible to get text to be properly centered,
I simply wrote an Icon subclass that paints 3 dots.

If the font size is > 13, it draws them larger, to simulate scaling
with font size.

Note that the size of the button is based on font size (if the user
wants a bigger font, they probably want a bigger button)
- the dots can only be perfectly centered if the button size is an odd
number.
