Well this just doesn’t want to work for me. I am sure (as sure as I can be) that I have it all installed properly. I get the blue header button but nothing happens when I click, double click, right click, clickety click, take a hammer to my keyboard click and nothing happens.
I was under the impression that something would happen when I click the blue button titled HEADER.
Maybe I will try 20 lb. sledge hammer clickety click. Does anybody know where I can get a 55 gal drum of Tylenol?

Bruce,
You Should NOT cut-n-paste code between the includes, or any other programs.
You are making it too complicated, Just copy the files intact, you can have many different include files in your include folder. Include programs are labeled as such and should be copied into your default include folder. Each demo program should be copied into an indicator Formula window.
The posts are "as developed" hence the last Include and demo code would provide the best solutions. for this reason code from different posts CANNOT be mixed. Always use the last one.
I included one of each type of button and required functions in the last post (Button Rotate), they are:
ButtonColumnBegin
ButtonHeader
ButtonText
ButtonRotate
ButtonTrigger
ButtonColumnEnd
Each of the indented button functions can be repeated between the Begin and End of the column to give you additional buttons.
The entire button column, including Begin and End functions, can be repeated to create button panels with as many button columns as you need.
best regards,
herman
