The Window Bar option in the Function Key Object allows the popup window to move about the OIT screen.
When Window#13 is displayed, the OIT operator is able to move the popup window about the screen by touching
the Window Bar on the top of Window#13 then touching another area of the OIT display where the Window should
be relocated.
Cre ating a popup win dow that can be min i mized
By using the Task Bar, popup windows you create for display on the OIT can minimized to a small icon that is
displayed in the Task Bar. To create a popup window that can be minimized, you must perform the following steps:
Create a popup window
Add a Function Key object with the Window Bar attribute in the popup window
Enable the Task Bar (Edit Menu =>System Parameters, select General tab in the Task button area select
Enable from the Attribute pull down menu.)
Add a Function Key object with the Minimize Window attribute in the popup window (optional)
Once more, an example is in order. Enabling and using the Task Bar are discussed later in this chapter.
Creating a window that can be minimized
1. Use Window #13 from the last example:
2. From the Parts menu, select Function Key. The Create Function Key Object dialog box is
displayed.
3. Click Minimize Window.
4. Click the Shape tab. Click Use Shape. Click on the Shape Library... command. Select
Shape#0 from the button1 library. Click OK to return to the Create Function Key Object
dialog box.
5. Click the Label tab. Click the Use label checkbox.
6. Enter a dash mark '-' into the Contents box. Click OK to exit the Create Function Key
Object dialog box and go back to the EasyBuilder main screen.
7. Place the new Function Key object somewhere on Window #13. Reenter the Function Key
Attributes dialog box by double-clicking on the Function Key object.
8. Click the Profile tab. Select X=124 and Y=4. Select Width=21 and Height=21.
9. Click OK.
10. Window #13 should now look something like this:
The Window Bar option in the Function Key Object allows the popup window to be minimized into an icon. When
the Task Bar is enabled, displaying Window#13 causes an icon to appear inside the Task Bar. The icon is labeled
with the title that appears in the Window Bar of Window#13. By double-clicking the icon, the window will
disappear from the OIT screen. The Minimize Window option in the Function Key Object accomplishes the same
action when it is pressed.
