Button with differents fonts   
Hi,

i need a button or a clickable label, with different font sizes inside of it. For example a integer value with its unit 
shall be displayed. The unit shall be in a much smaller size as the number.
I can not use 2 labels, because when the number of digits change the spacing doesn't look good.
So my idea was to use a PtMultiText and change it resources so that it behaves like a clickable lable. It worked, but I 
have one problem left. How do I manage it, that the text is not selectable. Because when I click on my modified 
PtMiltiText, it marks the text inside of it.

Somebody can help me with this problem? Or has a other idea to realize a button with different fonts inside of it?

Thanks for your help!

Best regards
Stephen

Hi Stephen,

I may be mistaken, but believe there should be options in the 'Text Flags' 
(not Multitext Flags!) to disable user selection. 

Cheers,

Hi Thomas,

you are right. Thanks! The Photon Application Builder doesn't show this flag in the Pt_ARG_TEXT_FLAGS ressource. But I 
have manipulated the ressource in the code. And it worked.

Thanks,
Stephen

RE: Button with differents fonts   
what about using subscript or superscript characters for the unit?
Unicode has those.

But not for all letters. http://www.unicode.org/charts/PDF/U2070.pdf
I need 'cm'. The 'c' letter is missing. :-(
