BUTTONBOX™ DESKTOP — BUTTON IMAGE
|
The ButtonBox™ Desktop is designed to allow user-defined images to be overlaid over certain buttons (i.e.categories) on the side panel.
Each button has two states:
The normal state is displayed whenever the mouse pointer is NOT positioned over the button.
Once the mouse pointer has moved over the button, the rollover image is displayed.
When the mouse pointer is no longer over the button, it will revert to the normal state.
In order to give the user visual feedback as to which category will be selected when the left mouse button is clicked, the background of the rollover image appears to highlight.
