public class MainButtonIcon

extends java.lang.Object

implements InterfaceProperties, java.io.Serializable

The ButtonIcon class is a library of common icons for graphical user interface (GUI) buttons. The icons are hard-coded using pixel co-ordinates as this avoids storing .gif images in .jar files. (Some browsers seem to have problems extracting .gif images from .jar files. Also the use of pixel co-ordinates means smaller .jar files whose GUI classes can execute faster if images do not have to loaded and rendered). The icons are designed to be 16x16 pixel size.

Each icon has four possible states: enabled, disabled, up (for mouse over) and down (for mouse pressed). Currently supported icons types are: start, stop, pause, reset, save, edit, info and wizard.
