    Button Text

    Is there a way to place text or a text label on a button and have it on more than one line? If the button text is long, say over 3 words, it stretches off the button itself. It's almost like I need a carriage return but can't put one in. I have placed a paragraph object over the button, but the attributes of the button, such as highlights, color change etc. are lost. The mouse over sees the text box not the button.

    AFAIK you Buttons in AMS do not support multi-line

    If you are a little creative, you could embed the text in the button graphics and reassemble the button using the "Button Maker" under the tools menu. Only real drawback there is you'll have to create many separate buttons and will not be able to dynamically assign text... hth
    Yeah right. Who's the only one here who knows the illegal ninja moves from the government?

    You can place a label over a button and do this.
