View source for Changing appearance of a button

To change the appearance of a button is quite simple once you learned it. 

# Load the texture containing the images.
# Create an imageset and define the images you to use.
# Set the button to use custom images and which

I assume you know how to create the texture and the imageset (if not, look in the example and the documentation). In the example below I use two images, one normal and one when hovering/clicking. I think the code speaks for itself.

<codebox>
CEGUI::Texture* texturePtr = CEGUI::System::getSingletonPtr()->getRenderer()->createTexture("buttons.png","Data/Media/Menu");                           

CEGUI::Imageset* ButtonsImageset = CEGUI::ImagesetManager::getSingletonPtr()->createImageset("Buttons",texturePtr);                                    
ButtonsImageset->defineImage("ButtonUp",CEGUI::Point(1,1),CEGUI::Size( 431, 64 ),CEGUI::Point(0.0f,0.0f)); 
ButtonsImageset->defineImage("ButtonDown",CEGUI::Point(1,256),CEGUI::Size( 431, 64 ),CEGUI::Point(0.0f,0.0f));

button->setProperty("UseStandardImagery", "false");                                                                                                 
button->setProperty("NormalImage", "set:Buttons image:ButtonUp");                                                                               
button->setProperty("HoverImage", "set:Buttons image:ButtonDown");                                                                              
button->setProperty("PushedImage", "set:Buttons image:ButtonDown");
