Characters

Select this option to write the control frame size and position in character units. The GUI Designer writes the values entered in Column, Row, Width, and Height on the OCX Control Frame Property Sheet in character units in the CREATE CONTROL-FRAME statement.

Pixels

Select this option to write OCX control frame size and position in pixel units. The GUI Designer writes the values entered in X, Y, Width Pixels, and Height Pixels in pixel units in the CREATE CONTROL-FRAME statement.

Custom Lists

Select this option to add the OCX control frame name to the selected custom list. For example, select the {&List-1} check box to add the OCX control frame 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.
