Making NumEdit Large Enough

[D.D. de Kerf]

I've written a Visual C++ application to monitor the data from a Profibus network and show these data in a nice GUI. For this GUI I've used the Measurement Studio components. I also have a couple of entry fields which I've implemented using the CCWNumEdit class.

The problem comes up when I run my application on the touch screen which it was made for. The Increade and Decrease buttons on the num-edit control are too small to use on the touch screen without getting a headache.

I've tried many things to make the num-edit bigger, but I just can't do it (making the NumEdit higher makes the spin control higher, but I can't get it any thicker). I don't want to create my own buttons, because I love the functionality of the spincontrol that comes
with the NumEdit (acceleration and all)...

Any ideas??

Sorry, you can't change the width of the inc/dec buttons on that control, just the height. I'll relay the suggestion to our developers. In the meantime, the only workaround would be to implement your own inc/dec buttons and turn off the built in buttons.
