SDI - Frames Form Properties (Magic xpa 4.x)
The SDI section of the Form Properties sheet is only enabled if the form runs as an SDI window, in other words, if the form is defined as SDI in the Window Type property.
The following properties appear in the SDI section:
|
Pulldown Menu
|
The menu that will be displayed when the SDI window is displayed.
|
|
Display Menu
|
Specifies whether the pulldown menu is displayed when the SDI window is displayed.
When this property evaluates to Yes (the default) and the Pulldown Menu form property evaluates to a valid menu entry, the pulldown menu will be displayed in the SDI container. When this property evaluates to No, no pulldown menu is displayed.
The expression is evaluated when the task initially loads and is not recomputed.
|
|
Display Toolbar
|
The SDI container has its own toolbars. The display of the toolbars is governed by the Display Toolbar property. This property specifies whether or not the toolbar will be displayed when the SDI window is displayed. The options are:
Yes (default) – A toolbar will be displayed in the SDI container, if there are any toolbars defined.
No – No toolbar will be displayed.
Expression – If you enter an expression, it will be evaluated when the task initially loads and is not recomputed.
|
|
Display Status Bar
|
The SDI container has its own status bar. The Display Status Bar property specifies whether or not the status bar will be displayed when the SDI window is displayed. The options are:
Yes (default) – A status bar will be displayed in the SDI container.
No – No status bar will be displayed. If no status bar is displayed, no status bar messages can be displayed. They will continue to be displayed in logs and the Activity Monitor.
Expression – If you enter an expression, it will be evaluated when the task initially loads and is not recomputed.
Note: In Rich Client forms, whenever a status bar is displayed, it can show information regarding the recent network activities. This is available when hovering with the mouse pointer over the right area of the status bar. When a program is executed from the Studio, this option is always active. When a program is executed at Runtime, you can enable this by specifying DisplayStatisticInformation=Y in the HTML file used to launch the application.
