Flat Button is a Carbon implentation of push button and pop-up menu controls found only in Mac OS X 10.3 and then only in Cocoa apps.

Flat Button is an HIView-based control and is thus compatible with all Carbon apps on Mac OS X 10.2 and newer.

Here are some key features of "Flat Button":
Flat Button is drawn using Core Graphics so that it cleanly scales to fit its bounding rectangle
Flat Button doesn't use pre-made graphics thereby preventing a user from altering its appearance
Flat Button's pop-up menu handling works with pre-made menus from a nib, resource or defined in code
Flat Button matches the look of other Apple-only controls increasing visual continuity between a user's apps
Flat Button works and looks the same in Carbon or Cocoa apps on Mac OS X 10.2 and newer.

Limitations:
A registration code is required to enable the code library for use in your app.

What's New:
Flat Button Carbon is now a Universal binary compatible with PowerPC 10.3.9 and PPC/Intel 10.4.x
Internal code cleanup for improved operation and OS support.

Requirements:
Universal Access support requires Mac OS X 10.2 or newer
User Interface scripting support requires Mac OS X 10.3 or newer
Metal-style windows or any window with the compositing flag set (Carbon)
Mach-O executable (not PEF compatible).
