Even then you had fields that you could click on with a detector pen; later 3270 models added additional facilities. > ( ISPF) to access your mainframe?

Re: ispf save / restore swapbar ?
SWAPBAR A toggle command used to display or remove a list of point-and-shoot fields for each ISPF logical screen. These fields are displayed on the last line of the physical screen. The SWAPBAR / command displays a a pop-up window which allows the format of the SWAPBAR to be customized. -Original Message- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List On Behalf Of Bob Bridges Sent: Wednesday, May 6, 2020 8:43 AM To: IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU Subject: Re: ispf save / restore swapbar ?

Re: ispf save / restore swapbar ?
Not sure what a 'swapbar' is, but I guess it would have to be saved to your ISPF profile pool (ISPPROF) before you logoff and restored from there when you logon. If it has a ZVAR name, as in something like )INIT .ZVARS = '(ZCMD SPRJ1 LIBB SECTION SEGMENT ABLV ZWSBV BMODEV SMODEV PRMODE + MSGDBVE MSGDBVS RPTDBVE RPTDBVS LISTDBVE LISTDBVS DEVTYPB VOLSER)' you could try saving/restoring that. Cheers.
