Character windows - textboxesΒΆ
Extra properties
border = integer
shadow = integer
|
Border and shadow style. These properties may be applied to individual textboxes or to textbox groups. A textbox border defaults to that assigned in the terminal parameter file (Section 11, Sub-entry 3, where the entry number is the palette number). The style flags WS_INDENT and WS_STANDOUT may be used to achieve an indented or standout appearance. These flags are ignored unless the border is a complete rectangle (as opposed to, for example, square brackets [ ]). Border styles with the prefix DELIM_ define left and right delimiters, and are particularly suitable for use with textboxes. EXAMPLES border = DELIM_VERTBARS
border = 2 /* Border style 2 - double line all round */

Textbox size and number of elements
The height = clause is ignored. Free format textboxes cannot be used. See Textbox size and number of elements.

The additional flag WS_STANDOUT is available to create a standout border. It also has no effect unless the border is a complete rectangle
