Button Border

[Javad]

How can I ommit the border of a button or change its width?

Thanks

Are you referring to the focus rectangle?
If so, you can use subclassing as shown here

See the Remove Focused Rect Demo

Another, simpler (read lazier) method is to set focus to some other control
in the button's click event.

I suspect he meant flat buttons, not focus-rect-free buttons.

Yes. That's right.
I mean a Flat button, not focus rectangle.
I want my button to be a simple rectangle, but I can't do this.

maybe you can't do it directly.

but you can simulate it by placing the button inside a borderless frame,
with the button larger than the frame so the borders get clipped.
