SetCoordType

This method changes the coordinates type on a specific form.

Parameters

sFormName

The form's name.

usFormId

The form's id.

bCoordType

The new coordinates type.

Return Value

On success, SetCoordType returns TRUE, FALSE otherwise. To get extended information, call WStError::GetLastErrorCode.

Remarks

The available coordinate types are:

• WS_FORM_CT_BYCELL: The widget's location and size are measured in cells that have a fixed size ( currently 18 x 18 pixels ).
• WS_FORM_CT_BYPERCENTAGE: The size and location of the widgets are measured on percentages, its actual size is calculated using the size of the mobile unit's screen.
• WS_FORM_CT_BYPIXEL: The widget's location and size are measured in pixels so no mapping is performed.

The available coordinate can be found on the WSTFormConstants enumeration.

The default coordinates type is WS_FORM_CT_BYCELL.

Example

using WirelessStudioOleWidgets;
WStFactory oFactory = new WStFactory();
WStForm oForm = new WStForm ();
short formId = 10;
oFactory.CreateFormById(formId);
oForm.SetCoordTypeById(formId);

Public wsForm As New WStForm
...
'Form creation and customization
    wsFactory.CreateFormByName "myForm"
    wsForm.SetCoordTypeByName "myForm", WS_FORM_CT_BYPERCENTAGE
