As Sander has already mentioned, you can access the FXButton.  But I
recognize the value of convenience, so a couple of APIs have been added
to FXShutterItem for this.

FYI, generally speaking, if a compound widget does not have an explicit
API to let you get to a particular sub-widget, do not forget that you can
walk the widget tree from the parent on down until arriving at the widget
in question. This is always possible.

Thus, you can change properties of any widget, even if its a compound one.


Cheers,
