Use

You use this function to maintain the table control attributes in the Screen Painter.

Features

To change the attributes for table controls, in the graphical Layout Editor of the Screen Painter, double-click on the table control. In the Attributes group box, you can set the following attributes:

Attribute Description

W/ ColHe

This attribute allows you to create column headings as text fields or input/output fields.

W/ Title

This attribute allows you to create a table title as a text field or an input/output field. You create the title separately.

Configbl

This attribute allows you to save the current table control attributes to a file at runtime. The system retrieves the settings from this file whenever the table is displayed.

Note

Switch off this attribute if no configuration is needed (for example, when the table consists of a single column that is always fully displayed) or the table control is modified in the program.

Resizing

This attribute indicates that a table supports vertical and/or horizontal resizing.

Separators

This attribute inserts vertical separating lines between the table fields (columns) and horizontal lines between the table rows.

Note

Use horizontal separators for wide table controls.

Line sel.

Allows line selection. Choose None, Single, or Multiple.

Column sel.

Allows column selection. Choose None, Single, or Multiple.

w/ SelColumn

Specifies whether a line selection column appears in the table. The column is stored internally as a checkbox. For this reason, the selection column requires a name. Enter a name in the space provided.

Fixed Columns

Excludes one or more columns from the horizontal scrolling. Enter the number of columns you want to fix (the counting starts from left to right).
