END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS AUTHOR Eric Lavoie Internet: "Eric Lavoie" EPILOGUE Suggestions and bug-reports are always welcome. Well ... bug-reports are perhaps not *that* welcome ... ;) Be sure to run bldlevel on the dll and provide that info in any report. INSTALL Now to install close Vispro Rexx, and just run install. The installation program will copy the files VPZxbfo.dll, VPZxbfo.hlp, in the Vispro Rexx directory, and modify the vprclass file to add it's object to the tools palette of Vispro Rexx. For help either run view VPZxBfo.hlp or access it through the help for objects on the Vispro Rexx menu, you should see 3D Button help there. Now to use it in a program, you will need to distribute the DLL file with your program. That's it. HISTORY Version 1.0: First release. Version 1.0.1: Improved the code for speed and how it displayed in VpRexx, minor bug corrected. Intermediate version not released. Version 1.0.2: Added bldlevel info thanks to Daniela Engert for the help on this. Version 1.0.3: Bug in the way the refresh of the layout occured if window was centered it displayed incorrectly. Removed debug code which makes the dll smaller. I whish to thank Armin Schwartz for helping me finding bugs and improving this release (You can finish your chores now). The help files will be improved in a later release. This code is now considered stable. Version 1.0.4: Modified behavior of button when only one icon is set, the icon move a bit in that case so it gives motion effect, and disabled it when 2 icons are set.
