Skinning HowTo/XUI Other Widgets
These are the XML elements and parameters used within the floaters, panels, and so forth, that make up the viewer user interface. They are used by the XUI files in the \skins\default\xui folders. See Skinning HowTo/Basics for an explanation of how these are used.
Many widgets use the same XML parameters. Rather than repeating them for every widget, they are described separately in Skinning HowTo/Common XUI XML parameters and just listed under the elements that use them.
button parameters
- Class LLButton : LLUICtrl : LLView
- In source file llui/llbutton.cpp
- Used by floater, panel, layout_stack, layout_panel, and form.
scale_image
Optional. Specifies whether to scale the button art as its container/floater is resized. As of 1.18.x, all button art has this property set to true where the button size is not equal to 32x128.
Boolean: scale_image="true"
label
Optional. Label is the text on the button's face. Without a specified label (and no image_overlay declared), your button will be labeled "Button".
String: label="Click Me!"
label_selected
Optional. Label is the text on the button's face when pressed into an 'on' state. Your button will inherit the label if you omit this property.
String: label_selected="I've been clicked."
font
(under construction)
font_style
Optional. Styles the text. Allows multiple style selections. As of 1.18.x, the style options are:

Art must be located in the ..\skins\textures directory within the Second Life application folder (on a Mac, this is inside the package at Contents/MacOS/Resources/skins/[SKIN]/textures). Art must also be named in textures.xml with an assigned UUID. By default, the button art is stretched to fit the specified button size.
String: image_unselected="btn_square-disabled_32x128.tga"
image_disabled_selected
Optional. Overrides the default button art for the disabled and selected/down button state.

String: image_unselected="btn_square-down-disabled_32x128.tga"
image_overlay
Optional. Applies an overlay image to the button. The button art will be sized to fit. As of 1.18.x, these icons should be 16 pixels high at maximum on a standard height 24px button to minimize scaling artifacts. Can be used with or without text. Art must be located in the ..\skins\[SKIN]\textures directory within the Second Life application folder (on a Mac, this is inside the package at Contents/MacOS/Resources/skins/[SKIN]/textures). Art must also be named in textures.xml with an assigned UUID. See image_overlay_alignment for alignment options.
String: image_overlay="icn_media-play_16.tga"
image_overlay_alignment
