Description

Binds edges of a dialog control to its parent. This function sets bindings to be fixed. To change any of them to be proportional, use SetProportionalBinding.

PROCEDURE SetEdgeBinding(
             dialogID        :LONGINT;
             itemID          :LONGINT;
             boundToLeft     :BOOLEAN;
             boundToRight    :BOOLEAN;
             boundToTop      :BOOLEAN;
             boundToBottom   :BOOLEAN);

def vs.SetEdgeBinding(dialogID, itemID, boundToLeft, boundToRight, boundToTop, boundToBottom):
    return None

Parameters

dialogID		LONGINT
itemID		LONGINT
boundToLeft		BOOLEAN
boundToRight		BOOLEAN
boundToTop		BOOLEAN
boundToBottom		BOOLEAN

Remarks

Binding to an edge indicates that the control will maintain a predictable distance from one of its sides to the corresponding side of its parent. Bindings can be either fixed or proportional. Fixed bindings maintain a constant distance from their parent. Proportional bindings maintain a distance that is a ratio of the initial position to the width (or height, as appropriate) of the parent.
