how to keep a button down

[victor7]

Hello, I wanted to know how to have a button look like it was pushed down after being pressed. For example, I have two square buttons that each show a different layout. So when I push one of the buttons, it will display a page and the button will look like it is still pushed down.

thank you.

Either create the button with the BS_PUSHBUTTON style:

CButton myButton;
myButton.Create(_T("My button"), WS_CHILD|WS_VISIBLE|BS_PUSHBUTTON, 
  CRect(10,10,100,30), pParentWnd, 1);

Or add the BS_PUSHBUTTON style to an existing button:

myButton.SetButtonStyle(BS_PUSHBUTTON);

You could also "group" two or more related buttons when only one can be selected at any given time.
