The ExButton component defines a command button. A command button on a form can start an action or a set of actions. For example, you could create a command button that opens another form. The control provides predefined button skins for Windows XP, Windows 95/98, and Mac 8.x buttons. Create your own skins for your buttons in minutes, using a WYSYWG skin builder. The ability to specify everything that control needs like graphical objects, transparent skins, HTML captions as simple text makes the exButton one of the best. The exButton control easily replaces the Standard Windows button by supporting most of the same properties, methods and events. In addition, you have complete control over how the button is displayed. The skin method, in it's simplest form, uses a single graphic file assigned to the client area of the button. By using a collection of objects laid over the graphic, it is possible to define which sections of the graphic will be used as borders, corners and other possible elements, fixing them to their proper position regardless of the size of the button.
