My PolyButton XFCN's are now available. I mailed them in to info-mac @sumex-aim last Sunday, and was going to wait for them to show up before posting, but they're STILL not there. (Must have a pretty big backlog, understandably.) I know I'm going to regret saying this, but... If anyone wants a copy of the PolyButton XFCNs & cannot wait for them to show up on sumex-aim, send me mail and I'll forward them to you. The binhex'ed file is 66K long, so please do not request these XFCNs if you know your mailer won't take mail messages over 60K. (The limit in most places that have limits is 100K, but I've seen 60K limits too.) The polybutton XFCN is really first-rate. It has a great response time. The polybutton editor XFCN needs a little work, but is quite servicable. These XFCNs work with HyperCard 1.2.x and HyperCard 2.0. This should be the answer to everyone's dreams. I hope you find this to be a useful hack. ___\ /___ Greg Anderson ___\ /___ \ \ / / Advanced Technology Group \ \ / / \ /\/\ / Apple Computer, Inc. \ /\/\ / \/ \/ greggor@apple.com \/ \/ -- ___\ /___ Greg Anderson ___\ /___ \ \ / / Advanced Technology Group \ \ / / \ /\/\ / Apple Computer, Inc. \ /\/\ / \/ \/ greggor@apple.com \/ \/
