VAC. Command

Variable rectangular

 

 

Intention

 

This command can be used to assign Rectangular Coordinates to a Variable.

It is possible to use calculations if they are enclosed in brackets.

 

Variables of type RECT are currently not used in the engine, but may be used in future versions. If you use a RECT variable, the variable will actually most often just be converted into a text-variable. You can assign an zero RECT by just leaving the data-part empty:

 

VAC.$$REC=

DBP.$$REC

END.

' Will assign 0,0,0,0 as RECT to $$REC

 

 

 

 

Syntax

 

VAC.P1=P2,P3,P4,P5

 

 

 

Parameter Explanation

 

Rectangular Coordinates (Rect) are defined as (P2 to P5):

 

P1   - Variable-name

 

P2   - Value: left X coordinate

 

P3   - Value: top Y coordinate

 

P4   - Value: right X coordinate

 

P5   - Value: bottom Y coordinate

 

All coordinates ( P2 - P5) can contain variables, system-variables and  formulas in (..)

 

 

 

 

Example

 

'**********************************

' VAC.

'**********************************

VAR.§§IVA=1

VAP.$$MYP=(100+§§IVA*2),(-13+(2*§§IVA))

VAC.§§KOR=(100+§§IVA*2),(-13+(2*§§IVA)),$$MYP

DBP.§§KOR

END.
