Hi,
In my custom WE I want to have internal engine and open GL but these buttons are huge...how can I draw and use my own buttons?
See attached image which explains the problem.
Cheers,
Mats

I'm not sure how to make your own buttons, but if you use the 3D mode menu item, it condenses all that information into just one of those huge buttons.

Mats:

Under Work Environment > Command Layout Schemes > Toolbars, select your toolbar and then click on the "Toolbar Options" pop up to get different options for Name and Icon display for your toolbar.

ArchiCAD 11 has nearly unique 1500 commands and 62 of them don't have icons. Unfortunately Internal Engine and OpenGL are in the iconless group. So you are left with the names only, and AFAIK there's nothing you can do about it, except make a wish.

Sorry.

Cheers,
Link.
