sIdentjavascriptlastDetailRow getHeightname
getHeight()
dessIndentReturns the height of the current element. NOTE: getHeight() can be used with getWidth() to set the size of an element using the setSize function. For example: //returns the width (w) and height (h) var w = forms.company.elements.faxBtn.getWidth(); var h = forms.company.elements.faxBtn.getHeight(); //sets the new size forms.company.elements.faxBtn.setSize(w,h); //sets the new size and adds 1 px to both the width and height forms.company.elements.faxBtn.setSize(w+1,h+1);ret
dessIndentReturns the x location of the current element. NOTE: getLocationX() can be used with getLocationY() to set the location of an element using the setLocation function. For Example: //returns the X and Y coordinates var x = forms.company.elements.faxBtn.getLocationX(); var y = forms.company.elements.faxBtn.getLocationY(); //sets the new location 10 px to the right; 10 px down from the current location forms.company.elements.faxBtn.setLocation(x+10,y+10);ret
dessIndentReturns the y location of the current element. The method can only be used in Record view. NOTE: getLocationY() can be used with getLocationX() to set the location of an element using the setLocation function. For Example: //returns the X and Y coordinates var x = forms.company.elements.faxBtn.getLocationX(); var y = forms.company.elements.faxBtn.getLocationY(); //sets the new location 10 px to the right; 10 px down from the current location forms.company.elements.faxBtn.setLocation(x+10,y+10);ret

dessIndentSets the location of an element. It takes as input the X (horizontal) and Y (vertical) coordinates - starting from the TOP LEFT side of the screen. Please note that location should not be altered at runtime when an element is anchored. Use the solutionModel in such a situation. NOTE: getLocationX() can be used with getLocationY() to return the current location of an element; then use the X and Y coordinates with the setLocation function to set a new location. For Example: //returns the X and Y coordinates var x = forms.company.elements.faxBtn.getLocationX(); var y = forms.company.elements.faxBtn.getLocationY(); //sets the new location 10 px to the right; 10 px down from the current location forms.company.elements.faxBtn.setLocation(x+10,y+10);prs
