could anyone explain to me how to use custom look in interface windows?

code:

---

<Control xsi:type="ButtonControl" Id="Btn">
<Position Top="5" Left="5" Width="50" Height="10"/>
<CustomLook>
<Normal>
<Element xsi:type="TextElement" Id="BtnNormText">
<Position Top="0" Left="0" Width="50" Height="10"/>
<Text>Norm</Text>
</Element>
</Normal>
<Hot>
<Element xsi:type="TextElement" Id="BtnHotText">
<Position Top="0" Left="0" Width="50" Height="10"/>
<Text>Hot</Text>
</Element>
</Hot>
<Pushed>
<Element xsi:type="TextElement" Id="BtnPushedText">
<Position Top="0" Left="0" Width="50" Height="10"/>
<Text>Pushed</Text>
</Element>
</Pushed>
</CustomLook>
</Control>

---

Note: this code is not tested, please say if it does not work and I will make sure it will work

This code is a button that when not hovered/pushed it will display the text "Norm" with no background. When Hovered over it will display "Hot" with no background and when pushed it will display the text "Pushed" with no background.

I hope this is what you were after...

You could have a look at SS4 as it uses CustomLook on the side bar (which are all actually radio controls) or PSM+ which is the same code

thanks, but i wonder if there is a "<Disabled>" tag?

yes there is, but is it not always needed... just look up the scripting doc =\

ok,

i'm trying to change the image of an ImageElement inside the Normal, Hot, and Pushed tags using the

code:

---

Wnd.ImageElmt_SetImageFile("BtnImg1","Image2.png");

---

but it won't work. it will just show in the debug:

Invalid procedure [...]

try this one:

code:

---

<Control xsi:type="ButtonControl" Id="btnYourButtonId">
    <Position Left="123" Top="123" Width="123" Height="123" />
    <Caption>Alternative Caption here</Caption>
    <CustomLook>
        <Normal>
            <Element xsi:type="ImageElement" Id="btnYourButtonIdNormal">
                <Position Top="0" Left="0" />
                <Image>
                    <Name>without-dot-png-your-image-file-normal</Name>
                </Image>
            </Element>
        </Normal>
        <Hot>
            <Element xsi:type="ImageElement" Id="btnYourButtonIdHot">
                <Position Top="0" Left="0" />
                <Image>
                    <Name>without-dot-png-your-image-file-hot</Name>
                </Image>
            </Element>
        </Hot>
        <Pushed>
            <Element xsi:type="ImageElement" Id="btnYourButtonIdPushed">
                <Position Top="0" Left="0" />
                <Image>
                    <Name>without-dot-png-your-image-file-pushed</Name>
                </Image>
            </Element>
        </Pushed>
    </CustomLook>
</Control>

actually the XML is working fine, it's just changing the element's images using script.

Invalid procedure seems to tell you that the method isn't valid for the given object, that is, Wnd is no correct Plus Window Object in the moment of execution.
