Form example
Previous  Top  Next

The "UpdateEstadistica" procedure shows a regular Wizard generated Form with several fields with "amount" data.  
When DigitChanger is deactivated, the Form look like this:  
clip0019  
Note that the data doesn't fit in these "entry" type fields, but instead of shown ### like in a browse column or in a string variable, the entries shown "garbage" data. This data looks ok but is actually wrong. If you enter the field and change it, you will loose the correct data.  
The first three amount fields are set to "default" width, while the rest are set to a fixed width.  
 
If you activate the Increase Integer (or fill the variable) with a value of 4, this is how the window will look:  
clip0020  
Now you can see the values in the first three amount fields, because as they have a default width they resize to fit the new mask.  
The other three fields now has the correct mask, but as they have a fixed width value, they still can't show the whole value (although you can select them and see the full data inside the field).  
 
If you activate the Force resize global setting the your Form will look like this:  
clip0021  
Now you can see the whole data in all the fields.  
Note: The entry type fields are now taking more space than before, so if you place other controls very near these ones, there will be overlapping.  
 
If you Truncate decimals, the window will change to this:  
clip0022  
Note that the decimals are no longer there.  
 
Now suppose that there is a field that is not an amount, but a quantity (like a stock field). You don't want to touch this particular field, for example, "Month 3". If you set the Exception on the global area, you will see this:  
clip0023  
Note that all settings are in effect except for this single field.
