AddImageTiledButton

[A_Li_N]

I have a question or two about this new feature...

public void AddImageTiledButton( int x, int y, int normalID, int pressedID, int buttonID, GumpButtonType type, int param, int itemID, int hue, int width, int height )

That's the call to make such a button. Here's a similar call:

public void AddImageTiled( int x, int y, int width, int height, int gumpID )

Now, the second one is old...we use it to add a tiled gumpID, tiled. So, if I wanted a tile of 5 status boxes (gumpID of 1), I'd do:

public void AddImageTiled( 0, 0, 400, 200, 1 )

(Demensions of the gumpID is 80x40)

Now, with the naming scheme, we would think that 'AddImageTiledButton' would allow us to make those 5 status boxes into one big button. However, from my testing, it does not do that. What it does is simply place an ItemID over a single GumpID, similar to the Treasures of Tokuno redeem gump.
int x = x coord of the GumpID (button)
int y = y coord of the GumpID (button)
int normalID = GumpID
int pressedID = GumpID pressed
int buttonID = duh
GumpButtonType type = duh
int param = duh
int itemID = ItemID of the item to display
int hue = hue of item displayed
int width = x coord of the Item
int height = y coord of the Item


Now, I only did a quick test of this new feature, so it is completely possible that I missed something. I'm just wondering why they would use that name for such a button, if that's all it does. I'd think maybe 'ItemImageButton' or something similar would be better descriptive, as 'Tiled' implies the same as it does in the ImageTiled.

Also, on a sort of side note, is there any way to get a 'BackgroundButton' or a true 'ImageTiledButton' where you make a background or tiled image act as a button? I'm asking if there's any way to do it like the other buttons, where it's one button. I already have methods to make the 'look' of both of these things, but it sends multiple buttons to do so.
