Applies To: | MDIClient |
Description
This method causes the MDIClient object to organise its child Forms as a row or column. To permit the user to carry out this action, it is recommended that a suitable callback function or expression is attached to a MenuItem or Button. The callback function or expression should then call the MDITile method.
Note that because there are restrictions concerning the minimum height and width of a window, MS-Windows does not necessarily respond as requested. If the MDIClient is itself of insufficient size, or if it contains a large number of child Forms, Windows may choose to tile the Forms in a row when a column was specified or vice versa. It may also choose to ignore the event entirely.
The argument to MDITile is ⍬, or a single item as follows:
[1] | Tile Mode | 0 (vertical) 1 (horizontal) |
If the argument is ⍬, the Tile Mode defaults to 0.
