STRETCH attribute

The STRETCH attribute specifies how a widget must resize when the parent container is resized.

Syntax

STRETCH = { NONE | X | Y | BOTH }

Usage

This attribute is typically used with form items that can be re-sized like IMAGE, TEXTEDIT, or WEBCOMPONENT fields.

By default, such form items have a fixed width and height, but in some cases you may want to force the widget to resize vertically, horizontally, or in both directions.

To allow the widget to resize vertically only, use STRETCH=Y.
To allow the widget to resize horizontally only, use STRETCH=X.
To allow the widget to resize vertically and horizontally, use STRETCH=BOTH.
To deny the widget to resize in both directions, use STRETCH=NONE.

Note: By default, WEBCOMPONENT form items stretch in both directions (STRETCH=BOTH is the default).

Example

IMAGE i01 = FORMONLY.image01, STRETCH=BOTH;
