Dave,

Generate a layout for one of your files using the prefab, large buttons
-- you know the ones with the garbage can and the disk icons.

Then edit it. These buttons are actually invisible buttons on top of
picts. I use SuperPaint to make new button pictures, paste them into a
4D layout and put an invisable button on top.

I'm sorry that I'm not sure if they are called "invisble buttons" but
you'll figure it out from the dialog when you create a new item. You may
have to ungroup the prefab buttons to pick them apart.
