How to make a button appear as if it is pressed?
Using VS2008, C#, .Net 2 and Winforms how can I make a regular Button look "pressed"?
Imagine this button is an on/off switch.
ToolStripButton has the Checked property, but the regular Button does not.

One method you can used to obtain this option is by placing a "CheckBox" object and changing its "Appearance" from "Normal" to "Button" this will give you the same functionality that I believe you are looking for.
You could probably also use the ControlPaint class for this.
I think you may need a
ToggleButton. You can take a look at third party vendors of WinForms components such as Telerik, DevExpress, ComponentFactory, ViBlend which provide such control. They all provide toggle buttons.
