Syntax

CALL SEND (data-vector-id, '_getDimension', dim<, unit<, add<, fit<, fixed>>>>);

Argument Type Description
dim N returns the width or height value
unit
C returns the width or height unit of measure.
add
C returns whether the width or height is added to the margins:


'Y' added


'N' not added
fit
C returns whether the width or height is a minimum size:


'Y' minimum size


'N' not a minimum size
fixed
C returns whether the width or height is fixed by the viewer:


'Y' fixed


'N' not fixed


Details

The _getDimension method is valid only if the viewer is a table editor. If fit is set to 'Y', the viewer interprets the width or height as a minimum size. This means that the viewer attempts to measure the data to determine their size, but it never goes below the width or height specified.

If fixed is set to 'Y', the viewer does not attempt to adjust the size of the data. Margins are ignored, and the viewer does not attempt to ensure that the row or column is big enough to display all of the label or the data.
