MakeNodeIcon Macro

This macro is used to make the icons for the function tabs. Typically, you insert an
image that is 700 x 300 pixels and the macro fits everything inside. Have fun.

AltIcon Macro

This macro is used to make the alternative icons. You insert a roughly 250 x 250 image
into the macro. It requires the Relief macro to be installed. It also calls on the font Arial.
If you do not have this font, search for the word in the macro file and substitute an
appropriate font.

VLUTButton Macro

This is the macro used to make the VLUT buttons. It requires the ViewerButton.h,
WallPaper.h,
and RoundButton.h files to be installed. None of these need the UI files,
just the .h startup files. Additionally, Roundbutton.h makes a call to the
round_button.iff file, also included in the doc/html/cook/macros/VLUTbutton directory.
Place the image somewhere and point the macro file to that new location inside of
the Roundbutton macro.

Finally, it calls on the Arial font. If you do not have this font, search for the word and
substitute an appropriate font.

The default arguments are:

text = “vlut {time}”

and

focus = 0 (off)
