Minimum Size and Resizability

A form will automatically stretch to fit the gadgets added to it.

You can use the SIZE keyword to give a minimum size in multiples of the character width and line height.

For example:

layout form !!New1 size 25.5 10

• Character width is the notional character width for the selected character font.

• Line height is the height of the tallest single line gadget, that is a TOGGLE, BUTTON, RADIO BUTTON, OPTION gadget or single-line PARAGRAPH for the selected character font.

The RESIZABLE command means that the form will be displayed with re-sizing controls at its corners. This will allow you to change the size of the form. Docking forms and all document forms are resizable by default; but for other types, if you do not include the RESIZABLE command, the size of the form is fixed.

layout form !!New1 RESIZABLE

layout form !!New2 size 25 10 RESIZABLE
