  • 1.  Displaying Colorful Window border

    Posted Mon October 16, 2023 08:14 AM

    Hi,

    Hi,

    is there any keyword by which i could display desired color border in display file which displays a window?

    my current display file shows currently dotted blue color like below:-

    A                R      R1   

    A                                               WINDOW(8 8 5 12)

    A                                                WDWBORDER(*COLOR   BLU)  (*DSPATR  HI))

    So if i want to display all the 4 border lines in blue color but no dotted border then what should be the changed version of above code?

    Thanks

    Kevin, 

      It's on the same SDA screen as the other window properties like the color choice.  It says set border characters.  The default is . and :, just set them to whatever character you want.  I get solid color borders with blanks and DSPATR RI.
