Tip of the Day #2: Using the TOP and LEFT coordinates for PRNSETUP

Supported Versions:

. R:BASE 7.6 for Windows (Build: 7.6.1.30206 or higher)
. R:BASE C/S:I 7.6 for Windows (Build: 7.6.1.30206 or higher)
. R:BASE Turbo V-8 for Windows (Build: 8.0.15.30206 or higher)

There are times when you wish you could display the PRNSETUP
window at a particular position on the desktop, instead of in
the center of your screen.

Using the latest updates, now you can use the TOP and LEFT
coordinates to achieve your goal.

Here's how:

PRNSETUP +
OPTION CAPTION Select Printer +
|TOP 10 +
|LEFT 10 +
|THEMENAME R:BASE Rocks!
RETURN

The PRNSETUP windows will be displayed at your desktop's top 10
and left 10 screen pixels, with a caption "Select Printer" and
the theme of R:BASE Rocks!

You may change the TOP and LEFT coordinates as well as select
one of the 30 supported R:Themes in R:BASE to suit your R:BASE
application.

In addition to PRNSETUP, the OPTION for TOP and LEFT coordinates
are also supported for #WHERE, CHOOSE, DIALOG and PAUSE commands.

Enjoy and make sure to have fun!

Very Best R:egards,

Razzak.
