To modify the Row and Column properties of an action in the screen
operations editor, select a character position in the screen image displayed
in the Actions tab.
The Row and Column properties specify a row and column location
that is used by an action. In the AID Key action, the Row and Column properties
identify the location of the text cursor.
The Row and Column values
are 1-based. That is, the row and column values of the first character in
an application screen (top left corner) are Row 1, Column 1.
The following
actions contain Row and Column properties:
To set the values of the Row and Column properties, you
can use the following quick and easy method:
- Verify that the screen operations editor is open and that the Actions tab
is selected.
- In the Outline view, select the action that you want to modify.
- Click the mouse on a character position in the screen image displayed
in the Actions tab. A green marking rectangle
appears at the character position, and the row and column values are written
into the Row and Column properties (for example, 33 and 12).
Note: To select some other field, use either of the following methods:
- Drag:
- Drag the green marking rectangle around the screen image using the mouse.
- Drag the green marking rectangle over the character position that you
want to select.
- Reset and select:
- Click the mouse once to remove the green marking rectangle.
- Click the mouse again to make the red marking rectangle re-appear.
