standard.storeSize

Asks GDC to store the size of the current window container.

Syntax

ui.Interface.frontCall("standard", "storeSize",
  [], [result])
  1. result - The execution status (TRUE=success, FALSE=error).

Usage

The "storeSize" and "restoreSize" front calls can be used to save temporarily the size of the window container, to restore the container to the saved size.

Important:

The "storeSize" and "restoreSize" front calls are only available with the GDC front end.

The "restoreSize" front call takes an optional parameter to define the delay in milliseconds. The window container will then smoothly shrink or grow to reach the saved size.

Invoking "restoreSize" will have no effect, if there was no prior call to "storeSize", or if "storeSize" was called for a different window container (see desktopMultiWindow style attribute).

Note that the stored window size is just a hint for a desired size: The layout has always higher priority. When restoring a window that is too small for the form layout, the window container will not shrink to the stored size.

See restoreSize topic for a code example.
