Once a button is created in Shoes, is it possible to change the text? I've tried modifying the :text key in the button [email protected] confirms the text is changed--but the button still shows the original text.

A:
I haven't figured out how to change the text on the existing button. I suspect it just isn't supported as of yet. You could create a new button and replace the old one. Unfortunately, at least on Windows, removing a button mucks up all the click events. I haven't tried it on another platform, but maybe it'll work. Try something like this:
Shoes.app do
para 'This is some text.'
@btn = button 'a' do |btn|
alert 'Hello, World!'
end
para 'Blah blah blah'
button 'Change!' do |btn|
old = @btn
new_style = old.style.dup
txt = new_style[:text].next!
old.parent.before(old) do
@btn = button txt, new_style
end
old.remove #This messes up the click events on Windows.
end
end
