Hi All,
environment v 15. I have a printed form with a few fixed height and width
objects that are set to multi style. If object gets to large (width or
height). I will be placing text on another page and a note that states more
info is in comments section
I thought operhaps I could use object get best size,but find it does not
work as I expected
I have the following code
*C_LONGINT*($OLeft_L;$ORight_L;$OTop_L;$OBottom_L;$BWidth_l;$BHieght_L;
$OWidth_L;$OHeight_L)
*OBJECT GET COORDINATES*(*;"v_164_056_txt";$OLeft_L;$OTop_L;$ORight_L;
$OBottom_L)
$OWidth_L:=$ORight_L-$OLeft_L
$OHeight_L:=$OBottom_L-$OTop_L
*ST SET TEXT*(v_164_056_txt;"CAUSE OF DAMAGE : "+
[LSS_Inspection]LSS_DamageCause_txt;ST Start text;ST End text)
$pos_L:=*Position*(":";v_164_056_txt) //
*ST SET ATTRIBUTES*(v_164_056_txt;1;$pos_L+2;Attribute bold style;1)
*ST SET ATTRIBUTES*(v_164_056_txt;1;$pos_L+2;Attribute background color
;"LightGray")
v_164_056_txt:=v_164_056_txt+" Testing height this is a test with losts of
wrapping and no CRs. "
v_164_056_txt:=v_164_056_txt+" Testing height this is a test with losts of
wrapping and no CRs. "
v_164_056_txt:=v_164_056_txt+" Testing height this is a test with losts of
wrapping and no CRs. "
v_164_056_txt:=v_164_056_txt+" Testing height this is a test with losts of
wrapping and no CRs. "
v_164_056_txt:=v_164_056_txt+" Testing height this is a test with losts of
wrapping and no CRs. "
v_164_056_txt:=v_164_056_txt+" Testing height this is a test with losts of
wrapping and no CRs. "
v_164_056_txt:=v_164_056_txt+" Testing height this is a test with losts of
wrapping and no CRs. "
v_164_056_txt:=v_164_056_txt+" Testing height this is a test with losts of
wrapping and no CRs. "
v_164_056_txt:=v_164_056_txt+" Testing height this is a test with losts of
wrapping and no CRs. "
v_164_056_txt:=v_164_056_txt+" Testing height this is a test with losts of
wrapping and no CRs. "
*OBJECT GET BEST SIZE*(*;"v_164_056_txt";$BWidth_l;$BHieght_L)
Thde width is way to wide. Is there a way I can adjust this so as to not
exceed the width as it appears on the form so only hieght changes in object
get best size
I am planning on writing some additional code to place text in arrays and
populate the text area one word at a time. If it gets too wide. I will add
a carriage return. This is a a lot of coding but should wortk. Any other
ideas out there
Thanks and regards
Chuck
