RAMP Screen Layout Style
|
If RAMP Screen Layout Style is set to Flow, RAMP screens will be automatically resized to fit into the space available to display them.
If Flow is used:
- Specific positioning and sizing of screens is not supported,
- Top and bottom masking of screen areas cannot be used to hide screen content.
- You cannot use or show the function key blue bar.
- Display Horizontal Scroll Bars and Display Vertical Scroll Bars options cannot be used for the obvious reasons.
Fixed means the RAMP screens are not resized to fit into the space available to display them.
|
|
Scroll Bars
|
If the Display Horizontal Scroll Bars option is checked, VLF.WIN applications will display horizontal scroll bars when a Fixed size 5250 screen will not fit in the display area. VLF-WEB/NET applications always act as if the Display Horizontal Scroll Bars option is checked.
If the Display Vertical Scroll Bars option is checked, VLF.WIN applications will display vertical scroll bars when a Fixed sized 5250 screen will not fit in the display area. VLF-WEB/NET applications always act as if the Display Vertical Scroll Bars option is checked.

Lock Framework when unknown 5250 form is displayed
|
This option applies a lock to the Framework when an unknown 5250 screen is encountered.
When a lock is applied, the user cannot move around within the Framework until they navigate to a defined 5250 screen.
They can exit from (for example, shut down) the Framework when such a lock has been applied.
Typically this option is used to trap unknown and/or unexpected 5250 screens.
In highly defined and managed sessions, where every 5250 screen should have been defined to RAMP, set this option on. In unmanaged sessions always set this option off.
|
|
Reuse existing connections user profile and/or password
|
Use this option to indicate that when this 5250 application session needs to connect to a server it should reuse the same user profile and/or password details as were used to establish the last successful server connection.
This option can be used to prevent the user from being prompted to input their user profile and/or password repeatedly for each new 5250 application session that needs to be started. Typically they are only prompted for the first application session they establish.
This option can be automatically overridden by individual user profile options or by super-server connection values.
The Framework remembers the last user profile and/or password used to establish a server connection only until the user exits from the Framework, at which point the details are lost.
|
|
Always link this session to a server with User Object Name / Type
|
Normally when a user needs to connect a 5250 application session they will be asked to choose which server they want to connect to.
Use this option to prevent the user from having to, or being allowed to, making this server connection choice.
Using it unconditionally links a 5250 application session with a server.
To use this option first assign an unique User Object Name / Type to the server.
Use the Framework Administration menu Servers option to do this.
For example, this server has been assigned the User Object Name / Type SERVER_2.
Next, set the 5150 application session to use the same name (eg: SERVER_2).
Now the 5250 application session and the server with user object name/type SERVER_2 are unconditionally linked.
The user can no longer choose which server to associate the 5250 application session with.
To remove this option from a session set it back to the default value of blank.

RAMP-TS Maximum Logoff Wait Time (seconds)
|
When a RAMP-TS session needs to be logged off (signed off) this values specifies in seconds the maximum time that the framework should wait for asynchronous time log off operation to complete. The default value is 10 seconds. Specify any integral value in the range 0 to 120. The value is in seconds.
|
|
Special Field Handling
|
Advanced prompting facility for fields.
You specify the name of the field to be prompted, the function key to be used and the Visual LANSA form that is used as the prompter.
