Converting a shape to a button

You can convert shapes to buttons. Doing so instantly converts the shape into a custom button.

To convert a shape to a button:

1. Right-click the shape and select Convert to Button.

   The shape object is replaced by the button object and the Button property ribbons (Properties, Style, and Position & Size) along with the Action ribbon are made available.

2. To add text, place the cursor over the center of the button and double-click. This changes the outline of the button and places the cursor is ready for input.

   If you do not specify to use an empty ALT tag for the button, the text for the button is used for the text in the ALT tag. For details about specifying an empty ALT tag for an object, see Using an empty ALT tag for an object.

The button is created. Use the controls on the Properties, Style, and Position & Size ribbons to configure the button, including the various states of the button and use the Action ribbon to configure the action associated with the button. See Working with buttons for details about specifying the properties of a button.
