Use buttons with recipe objects
You can use button graphic objects with the RecipePlus selector and table, to select the
recipe and unit to work with, and to select ingredients in the table.
You can link buttons to a specific recipe object, or set up a button to work with whichever
object is selected in the graphic display. For information about linking buttons to objects,
see page 21-9.
Use these buttons with recipe objects:
To see how the buttons work with the RecipePlus selector and table, open the
RecipePlus_Components graphic library (see page 29-11), and start test mode.
For information about creating buttons, see Chapter 20. For details about setting up the
buttons, see page 21-16.
