Private Data

Enter any private data about the selected image. Private data is an annotation containing any character data that you can attach to an object. This annotation is only informational and not used by the code. The GUI Designer reads and writes private data as comments in the Run-time Attribute and AppBuilder Settings section of procedure files.

Characters

Select this option to write image size and position in character units. The AppBuilder writes the values entered in Column, Row, Width, and Height on the EDITOR Property Sheet in character units using the Size and At phrases in the DEFINE IMAGE and DEFINE FRAME statements.

Pixels

Select this option to write image size and position in pixel units. The AppBuilder writes the values entered in X, Y, Width Pixels, and Height Pixels in pixel units using the Size and At phrases in the DEFINE FRAME statement.

Custom Lists

Select the custom list check box to add the image name to the selected custom list. For example, select the {&List-1} check box to add the image name to custom list &List-2.

One of six user-defined, alphabetical lists of space-delimited object names represented by the preprocessor names (&List-1, &List-2, &List-3,&List-4, &List-5, &List-6). You can use custom lists in ABL code whenever you need to represent object names, as in the following example:

ENABLE ALL EXCEPT {&LIST-1} WITH FRAME {&FRAME-NAME}.

HIDE {&LIST-2} WITH FRAME {&FRAME-NAME}.

The GUI Designer adds an object name to a custom list whenever you activate one of the list toggles on the object's Advanced Property Sheet. Objects that are cut or deleted from a procedure file are automatically removed from the appropriate list.
