Syntax

CALL SEND (data-vector-id, '_setDimension', dim<, unit<, add<, fit<, fixed>>>>);

Argument Type Description

N specifies the width or height value

unit
C specifies the width or height unit of measure.

add
C specifies whether the width or height is added to the margins:

'Y' add

'Y' minimum size

'N' not a minimum size

fixed
C specifies whether the width or height is fixed by the viewer:

'Y' fixed

'N' not fixed

Argument	Type	Description
dim	N	specifies the width or height value
unit	C	specifies the width or height unit of measure.
add	C	specifies whether the width or height is added to the margins:
		'Y'	add
		'N'	do not add
fit	C	specifies whether the width or height is a minimum size:
		'Y'	minimum size
		'N'	not a minimum size
fixed	C	specifies whether the width or height is fixed by the viewer:
		'Y'	fixed
		'N'	not fixed

Details

The _setDimension method is valid only if the viewer is a table editor.

If fit is set to 'Y', the viewer interprets the width or height as a minimum size. This means that the viewer attempts to measure the data to determine their size, but it never goes below the width or height specified.

If fixed is set to 'Y', the viewer does not attempt to adjust the size of the data. Margins are ignored, and the viewer does not attempt to ensure that the row or column is big enough to display all of the label or the data.
