Compound Properties |
|
Initially, control object properties were introduced to provide dynamic access to the basic attributes of a control object in PxPlus. The original list of properties covered obvious features (Height, Font$, Text$) in graphical control objects; however, as this list continues to expand with each new release of PxPlus, so does the variety of features that can be defined via properties.
Many of the latest properties are designed to provide characteristics and behavior that go way beyond what can be defined by directives alone. Most attributes are defined using individual properties; however, some extended functionality is contingent on sets of two or more (compound) properties and requires more complex manipulation.
The following links provide additional information that identifies and describes these properties:
