Button_Create_Emulation

Creates a button with the specified text and puts the left side of it where emulation text at the supplied coordinates would be.

If the width value is 0, the button will be sized to fit the text. Each time the button is pressed, the Boolean variable specified will be set to TRUE. You will need to reset the variable if you want to detect future button presses. All buttons created by the script will be removed when the script exits. The Wait_For_Screen_Update action can be used to wait for a button to be pressed.

The button will be hidden if emulation text at that location is hidden.

The top of the bitmap starts in this text row.

Column
