Bevelbutton / Bevel

Why can’t I see any difference by changing the Bevel property of a BevelButton ?
Neither which I select it does not change anything to the button.

On Mac, there aren’t any additional styles anymore. BevelButton is so old Apple recommends not using it.

Ah well that’s what I get for being a Windows dude

I’m using Windows.
If I select ‘No Bevel’ the button has no outlines (correct).
But between Small, Normal, Large I can’t see no difference.

What is ironic… If you write a macOS app using Swift or ObjC… most all of those “styles” work

Tim_Parnell · January 22, 2019, 5:58pm

Ah, that’s because Xojo’s BevelButton isn’t the Cocoa one

Oh I know that… the irony is that Apple says not to use them… when in fact checkbox etc are subclasses of NSButton
