Syntax

objectName._setBorderStyle( style );

objectName._setBorderStyle( style, width );

objectName._setBorderStyle( style,width, lightSource );

Argument Type Use Description

style Character Input specifies the border style: SIMPLE, SHADOW, BUTTON, EMBOSS, or NONE

width Numeric Input specifies the width of the border

lightSource Character Input specifies a light source: UPPER LEFT, UPPER RIGHT, LOWER LEFT, or LOWER RIGHT

Argument	Type	Use	Description
style	Character	Input	specifies the border style: SIMPLE, SHADOW, BUTTON, EMBOSS, or NONE
width	Numeric	Input	specifies the width of the border
lightSource	Character	Input	specifies a light source: UPPER LEFT, UPPER RIGHT, LOWER LEFT, or LOWER RIGHT

Details

The light source is honored only if the shadow style is shadow, button, or emboss.

When values for style, width, or lightSource are missing, those attributes are not changed.

Example

obj1 is a container box. Clicking on the container cycles through different light sources and sets the border title to the current light source. The INIT section simply initializes CNT and does not have a return statement so the _setBorderStyle in MAIN runs:

 array light[0:3] $11 {"upper left",
                       "upper right",
                       "lower right",
                       "lower left" };
 INIT:
  cnt=0;

 MAIN:
  obj1._setBorderStyle('shadow',5,light[cnt]);
  obj1._setBorderTitle(light[cnt]);
  cnt = mod(cnt+1,4);
return;
