viewObject

Procedure this is container-specific code for viewObject. If the HideOnInit property has been set during initialization to allow this object and its contents to be initialized without being viewed, turn that off here and explicitly view all contents.

Location: containr.p

Parameters: None

Notes:

This Container-specific version of viewObject checks the HideOnInit property for the Container. If it was TRUE, then the container was not viewed when first initialized. Now that it is being viewed, it turns off the HideOnInit property in itself and its contents, and explicitly visualizes its contents.
See viewObject for visual.p for more general information on using and customizing this event procedure.
