Thanks Jacque,
That note is actually very enlightening to me!

Just for reference, LiveCode has only one field and one button object. All the field variations in the tool palette are just a single field object with different properties set. The same goes for all the buttons.

I think it's misleading for new users because it gives the impression that there are different types of button and field controls.

Hi Craig,
Thanks for elaborating. I really appreciate it.  I know your first
message
meant perfect sense to you, but I just don't have much experience.
I should have thought to do what you just said in this most recent
post.
Now I have a better understanding of how to do stuff like that.
Again, thanks very much.
Larry

Make a label field the way you want it. Set the properties of the
templateField to the properties of your label field.

Hi Craig,
Yes, but how do I do that?
I cannot find any command that distinguishes from label or regular
field.
I do use templateField for other properties, but nothing I've tried
will
set
the property of a label field.
Thanks,
Larry

Hi.


Set up the templateField as a label field. Then all new fields
created
will have its properties.

I can use "create field" to create a new field, but it is a
rectangular
field
with square corners.  How do I create a new label field
programatically?
