OBJECT GET RESIZING OPTIONS 


 

OBJECT GET RESIZING OPTIONS ( {* ;} object ; horizontal ; vertical ) 
Parameter Type   Description
Operator in If specified, object is an object name (string)
If omitted, object is a variable
object  Form object in Object Name (if * is specified) or
Variable (if * is omitted)
horizontal  Longint in Horizontal resizing option
vertical  Longint in Vertical resizing option

The OBJECT GET RESIZING OPTIONS command returns the current resizing options for the object(s) designated by the object and * parameters for the current process.

If you pass the optional * parameter, this indicates that the object parameter is an object name (a string). If you do not pass this parameter, this indicates that the object is a variable. In this case, you pass a variable reference instead of a string.

The command returns the current resizing options, as set in the Design mode or for the process using the OBJECT SET RESIZING OPTIONS command. These options specify the display of the object when the form window is resized.

The horizontal parameter returns a value indicating the horizontal resizing option that is set for the object. You can compare the value received with the following constants, found in the Form Objects (Properties) theme:

Constant Type Value Comment
Resize horizontal grow Longint 1 If the window grows by 50% in width, the object is expanded by 50% to the right.
Resize horizontal move Longint 2 If the window grows by 100 pixels in width, the object is moved 100 pixels to the right.
Resize horizontal none Longint 0 If the window is expanded in width, neither the width nor the position of the object changes.

The vertical parameter returns a value indicating the vertical resizing option that is set for the object. You can compare the value received with the following constants, found in the Form Objects (Properties) theme:

Constant Type Value Comment
Resize vertical grow Longint 1 If the window grows by 50% in height, the object is lengthened by 50% towards the bottom.
Resize vertical move Longint 2 If the window grows by 100 pixels in height, the object is moved 100 pixels towards the bottom.
Resize vertical none Longint 0 If the window is expanded in height, neither the height nor the position of the object changes.
