Topic: Caption is overlapping with icons

Hello all!

My problem is as follows: we want to update our application with newer command bars and therefore i implemented a prototype in Progress (pretty different handling of OCX there).

I am limited in available space due to our current application, (the height is fixed), also imagesizes used for the buttons are fixed at 16 x 16.

When i use a commandbar with the seticonsize(16,16) command the captions start to overlap with the icons ---> can i re-locate the captions to the very bottom of the controls?

Help would be much appreciated, i've looked through alot but didnt find anything appropriate yet.

For a screenshot of the behaviour please check

Noone that has any idea on that topic?
I tried shuffling alot of options but always end with this problem due to the limited space to integrate the bar.
Am i overlooking an option to reposition the caption?

These are the relevant code parts i use, please mind that progress ocx handling is a little different from vba:

General Bar settings:

/* Reset the command bar */
gchCommandBar:CommandBars:DeleteAll().

/* Create the necessary buttonbar on the commandbar */
chButtonBar = gchCommandBar:CommandBars:ADD("ButtonBar", 0).

ASSIGN chButtonBar:VISIBLE             = FALSE
         chButtonBar:Closeable           = FALSE
         chButtonBar:ContextMenuPresent = FALSE
         chButtonBar:Customizable        = FALSE
         chButtonBar:ShowExpandButton    = FALSE
         chButtonBar:ShowGripper         = FALSE
         chButtonBar:EnableAnimation     = FALSE.
         chButtonBar:EnableDocking(64).
         chButtonBar:seticonsize(16,16).

Settings for a button:

gchCommandBar:CommandBars:Icons:LoadIcon(ipcIcon, iIconID, 0).

chButton = chButtonBar:Controls:ADD(1, 1, "").
      ASSIGN chButton:IconID             = iIconID
             chButton:VISIBLE            = FALSE
             chButton:ToolTipText        = cTooltip
             chButton:DescriptionText    = cTooltip
             chButton:WIDTH              = 20
             chButton:HEIGHT             = 55
           chButton:Style = 4.


Thanks.
