WR SET AREA PROPERTY 


 

WR SET AREA PROPERTY ( area ; option ; value ; stringValue ) 
Parameter Type   Description
area  Longint in 4D Write area
option  Integer in Option number
value  Integer in Depends on the option
stringValue  String in String for the property, depending on the option

The WR SET AREA PROPERTY command allows you to modify the value of option for the 4D Write area referenced by area.

If area equals 0, the WR SET AREA PROPERTY command will apply to each 4D Write area that is opened subsequently. In this case, it is recommended that your code should call this command in the On Startup Database Method.
In option, pass one of the constants of the “WR Area properties” theme. You can also use the constants of the “WR Parameters” theme to set the values. A description of each constant and its corresponding values are found below.

The stringValue parameter can be used with the wr window title and wr minimized button title properties.
