Multiple text line on button

I'm using a BitBtn and would like to split a line of text into two lines on
a button.  Is there any special character to do this, and if so, does
anyone know what it is?

You're going to need a customised solution to this. One thing you could do is
to make your own bitmap with more than one line of text.

Hi,
try this way :
 Button.Caption:= 'Line1'#13'Line2'
I tryed it with TLabel and it's worked.

Nice days

P.B.

Wow! That's an old one. So you tried it with a label - now try it with a
button!

Override the CreateParams procedure of a TButton object as follows

  Type TMyButton = Class(TButton)
  public
    procedure CreateParams(var Params: TCreateParams);override;
  end;

procedure TMyButton.CreateParams(var Params: TCreateParams);
begin
  inherited;
  Params.style := Params.Style or  BS_MULTILINE;
end;
