Documentation

Definition

This attribute is only intended for column fields of a table control. It affects the ability to move columns with the mouse and when scrolling horizontally.

Effect

The attribute is selected

• you cannot change the position of the affected column via drag and drop
• if you scroll horizontally in the table, the column will not scroll but remain visible on the left side of the table

If you set the attribute for a field in the second or a higher column, all columns to the left of it must also be fixed.

You can also set the attribute dynamically from the program by assigning the number of fixed columns (starting from the left) to variable mytable-FIXED_COLS. This dynamic assignment overrides that of the Screen Painter.

Use

The attribute should be set for key fields, so that you do not lose the context for the related fields to the right in wide tables.
