SUMMARY

The physical size of a Microsoft Visual FoxPro command button is based on the FontSize property of that command button when AutoSize is set to True.

MORE INFORMATION

The size of a command button that contains only a picture may be affected by the FontSize property of that CommandButton if the AutoSize property is set to true.

Steps to Demonstrate Behavior

  1. Add a command button to a form.

  2. Change the Picture property to a valid bitmap so the command button displays a picture.

  3. Select the Caption property and press the DELETE key to remove the caption.

  4. Set the AutoSize property of the command button to True (.T.).

  5. Change the FontSize property of the command button and notice the affect on the command button.

  6. Set the AutoSize property to False (.F.).

  7. Adjust the FontSize property to size your button appropriately.
