Hi,

I have an option menu button that i am trying to apply a button image to but I wish to keep the "Display Name" enabled on the button, so I can see the current state of the button at all times..(there are 20 options within so not practical to display a new image for each pItemName)

The issue is when I have the "Display Name" option enabled in the property inspector it shifts the button ICON Image and hence I cant orientate the image correctly over the button.

I need to keep the "Display Name" on so I can see the current state of the button!!

see attached images for details?

any ideas?

Hi Nakia,

use the margins to adjust the image.

in the properties inspector -> Text Formatting -> Margins.
The default is 4. That means that the left, top, right, bottom margin is set to 4.
To set them individually try something like 4,15,4,4

Look up margins in the dictionary.

Kind regards

Bernd

Thanks so much, could only get it working left justified but that is okay..

Probably will get it to work on "Centered" but just need to play with the values some more..

Thanks again mate..
