Dialog Desinger

Post by koleviko » Wed Jul 14, 2010 8:05 pm

I have two monitors 17 and 19 inches and I want my program to always show right - down.

Code: Select all

Dialog>Dialog1
   Caption=notes
   Width=281
   Height=242
   Top=Right
   Left=Right
EndDialog>Dialog1
[/quote]

How to do this ?

:shock: :shock: :shock:

Use the GetScreenRes command to get the screen resolution and then subtract width and height of dialog to determine top left position for dialog and then apply those values to the dialog. (In V12 use SetDialogProperty).

Ã’hanks now works :wink:

Code: Select all


GetScreenRes>x,y
let>x=x-289
let>y=y-139

Dialog>Dialog1
   Caption=Hello
   Width=289
   Height=109
   Top=y
   Left=x
EndDialog>Dialog1
show>Dialog1,

Second question?
How do I change the resolution from 16 to 32 bits
What is the command?
