Display Objects

Display objects do not have any visual attributes other than implicit dimensions. A display acts as a "container" for the form objects it owns. The visual appearance of a display is the result of the visual attributes of the form fields owned by each of the forms the display owns. The dimensions of a display are considered to be the internal dimensions (i.e. the "client area") of the window. There is no edit dialog for display objects. The painter supports the creation of associations among windows, menus and displays so that they can be viewed and/or edited as a group.
