ActionButton | SuperCollider 3.13.1 Help

Description

Sizes itself to fit the name. Nice, simple constructor saves fiddling around with a raw Button.( ActionButton(nil,"hit me",{ "thank you".postln }); ) ( // bigger title... bigger button ActionButton(nil,"hit me hit me hit me hit me hit me hit me hit me hit me hit me hit me hit me ",{ "THANK YOU".postln }); )

SimpleButton in ServerTools is basically the same thing but I wanted that library to have no dependencies on crucial.

    b.view.canReceiveDragHandler = { View.currentDrag.isNumber };

        a.items[ View.currentDrag.asInteger ].postln;
    };
