3D Active Button Magic is a useful and one of the ultimate button ActiveX control. It replaces the old fashioned Windows flat-square button in applications written with the most widely used development environments that accept ActiveX controls such as Visual Studio 6.0 , Visual Studio.NET and Delphi.

Whether you are developing a simple Windows application, a kiosk application or a touch screen application for the POS market, 3D Active Button Magic will enhance your user interface with an outstanding look and will speed your applications "time-to-market".

The strength of this product is the fact that, in order to render its surface, it doesn't make use of predefined bitmaps created with expensive graphical applications. It calculates the 3D rendering of the surface using a proprietary algorithm whose quality cannot be found in any of the few competitors on the market. This will allow you to save time and money each time you have to customize your applications. Furthermore, thanks to the use of predefined "templates ", you can change all the settings of a button with a single line of code during the application execution.

3D Active Button Magic is not only an enhanced alternative Command Button control, it is a suite of 8 different controls which can be used as greatly enhanced alternatives to standard Windows Common Controls.

With 3D Active Button Magic , you can have the same great button animation capabilities and disjointed rollover effects that you have come to love in Macromedia Flash buttons on Web-based pages and on the Internet.
