Windows

Main Characteristics of Window

In Zim applications, window objects are visually identical to standard windows in Microsoft Windows;

The visual and behavioral attributes of window objects are fully customizable by the Zim IDE via the Properties Tab;

The Zim language includes an extensive suite of commands for dynamically modifying both the visual and behavioral characteristics of window objects;

The Zim IDE supports the creation of associations among windows, menus, and either forms or displays so that they can be viewed and/or edited as a group;

A window object may be created directly by the developer or by the Zim IDE, in which case it is created automatically when the user creates a form or a display;

Window objects do not own user interface objects. Instead, they act as an interface between the operating system and forms, displays or menus.
