When using FASM Resource Macros like this code in this thread:
http://board.flatassembler.net/topic.php?t=4579
how do you know the size of the dialogs, buttons, etc?
If these are edited by hand, how to know x and y of a button to be placed in the right place?

Thanks

The best would be IMHO to create first a template in some external app. If not, just try some values, compile and eventually move, enlarge, etc. your buttons... You'll learn once circa how big x and y to give.

OzzY,

I would recommend using a resource editor to do the design, and then use the sizes and coordinates produced from the editor. I would recommend KetilO's fine free products. RadASM is a full IDE with resource editor, and ResEd is a standalone resource editor. www.RadASM.com click on RadASM Projects and download resed.zip

hth,

farrier
