PV SET COLUMNS WIDTH
version 6.8
PV SET COLUMNS WIDTH (area; first; last; width)
| Parameter | Type | Description | |
| area | Longint |  | 4D View area |
| first | Longint | | First column number |
| last | Longint | | Last column number |
| width | Integer | | Column width in pixels |
Description
The PV SET COLUMNS WIDTH command allows modifying the width (in pixels) of area columns located between the first and last included columns.
Note : If you pass 0 (zero) in the first and last parameters, the defined width will be applied to all the columns of the area and will become the new default column width for the area. The default width is applied notably when the user double-clicks on the right-hand separator of a column.
Example
This example illustrates a resizing of rows and columns:
C_LONGINT($Column;$Row) `Principle loop index
C_LONGINT($Width;$Height) `Index of the column and row enlargement loop
C_LONGINT($StartWidth) `Original width of the Xth column
C_LONGINT($RequestWidth) `Requested width of the Xth column
`Let's initialize
$StartWidth:=5 `Set the original width
$RequestWidth:=$StartWidth+5 `10 point width for the first column
For ($Column;1;5) `Taken care of for the first 5 columns
$Row:=$Column `Only for the first five lines
For ($Width;$StartWidth;$RequestWidth;2) `For the column "$Column"...
$Height:=$Width-5 `Update height
PV SET ROWS HEIGHT (area;$Row;$Row;PV Get row height (area;$Row)+$Height) `1 row
PV SET COLUMNS WIDTH (area;$Column;$Column;PV Get column width(area;$Row)+$Width) `1 column
PV REDRAW (area) `Refresh
End for
$StartWidth:=$RequestWidth `To not start at the beginning
$RequestWidth:=$RequestWidth+5 `Increase for the next column
End for
