DEFAULTVIEW action attribute

The DEFAULTVIEW attribute defines if a default view (a button) must be displayed for a given action.

Syntax

Syntax 1 (Dialog action handlers and form action defaults)

DEFAULTVIEW = [ AUTO | YES | NO ]

Syntax 2 (Global .4ad action defaults file)

defaultView = [ "yes" | "no" | "auto" ]

Usage

DEFAULTVIEW is an action attribute defining whether the default action view (a button) must be displayed for an action.

NO indicates that no default action view must be displayed for this action.
YES indicates that a default action view must always be displayed for this action, if the action is visible.
AUTO means that a default action view is displayed if no explicit action view is used for that action and the action is visible.

The default is AUTO.

This attribute applies to the actions defined by the current dialog in the current window. It can be specified as action default attribute in a global .4ad file, in the ACTION DEFAULTS section of form files, or as dialog action attribute.

Example

-- As action handler attribute
ON ACTION zoom ATTRIBUTES(DEFAULTVIEW=YES)

-- As action default
ACTION DEFAULTS
  ACTION zoom (DEFAULTVIEW=YES)
END

-- In a global action defaults file
<ActionDefault name="zoom" defaultView="yes" ... />
