Documentation

Definition

This attribute controls the behavior of the screen element when you change the window height manually. It cannot be set dynamically within the program.

Effect

The attribute affects table controls, tab controls and subscreen.
The following description is based on table controls, but the same principle applies to tab controls and subscreens.

Attribute is set:

• The distance between the last line of the table and the lower edge of the window remains constant when the window size is altered manually. Fields below the table always remain visible. The spacing between these fields and the table itself remains constant.
• If the window is made smaller, lines are disappear from the table display, starting at the bottom. Since all screen fields remain visible down to a minimum window size, the window has no scrollbar when its size is reduced. If the window size is increased, a corresponding number of extra lines will be displayed at the bottom of the table. (for restrictions on this, see the note below).

Attribute is not set:

• There is no fixed distance between the bottom of the table and the edge of the window, When the window height is reduced, a corresponding number of lines at the bottom of the screen disappear from the visible display. Fields below the table may in this case no longer be visible. The window acquires a scrollbar. If the window height is increased, table entries and screen fields from below the original display will become visible. The maximum number of table entries to be displayed is defined in the Screen Painter.

Use

This attribute should always be set whenever

• there are pushbuttons below a table which are used to work with the table
• the table contains a lot of entries, and the user wishes to see as many as possible at the same time.

Note

When you use a table control, no additional lines are generated because
of the limited screen load. In creating the screen, you therefore need to ensure that you create enough lines. Otherwise, the space will not be used optimally when the screen is displayed on a large screen.
