D Ddancer Member Licensed User Longtime User Dec 4, 2014 #1 Hi I'm totally new to B4A and I've been watching videos of the designer where when a button is added you have a property option of adding border and border size etc. I have the latest version of B4A (4.0) and I don't see any of these choices in the designer. In fact the option are very lacking by comparison to viewed video. Do I need an added lib or reference? Video I'm referring to link: Help Please https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/visual-designer.45970/

D Ddancer Member Licensed User Longtime User Dec 4, 2014 #3 Is that a different designer than the one that comes with the application. If it is the standard designer when I use it and place a button on the layout I don't have an option property to add a border to the button. There are a very limited amount of properties by comparison to want is shown in the video. So what did I miss when I installed the application or perhaps what lib do I need to reference?

derez Expert Licensed User Longtime User Dec 4, 2014 #4 B4i is not B4A, which one did you install ? B4A 4.0 was released just for beta testing, I think you do not have it and you mix the details. To work with the designer you don't need to add libraries. Upvote 0
