    Button Sizes

    One of the things that annoys me most about BV is the buttons. You cant SIZE them and I am forever resizing them in *** or photoshop, and also the selection needs to be updated.

    I know .. one builder doesnt do it all, butttttttttt... I think button sizing is a key option that is missing.

    Re: Button Sizes

    Karen, I agree. I know it is almost impossible to please everyone with things like buttons, but It might even be a good idea to incorprate a good and flexible bespoke button builder. Might find one that could be licensed rather than BV programmers build one from scratch?

    Regards,
    James.

      Re: Button Sizes

      I'm afraid that the menu buttons can NOT be resizable, at least not without being distorted. They are images, so if you stretch them, they will distort. If you enlarge them (or size them down) in both height and width, you will usually have a image quality loss, especially as those button images are already small resolution, in order to load faster.

      However, resizing the buttons is not that difficult, even without Photoshop or ANY other graphics program (import the button image in BV, resize it, preview it, and save it with it's own name from the browser inside your navbar folder). If you simply want to size down, you can also use PIXResizer.

        Thanks for the tip. I've wanted larger buttons myself.

          Hi Karen,

          XARA Webstyle uses 2 "Sliders" to auto resize any buttons or images and also the space around the fonts. The action is done with real time preview.

          It is a positive development that BV should consider
