Use this file- or record-level keyword to specify the color, display attributes, and characters used to form the border of a window.
The format of the keyword is:
WDWBORDER([color] [display-attribute] [characters])
At least one parameter must be specified.
The color parameter specifies the color of the border characters on a color display station (3179 Models C1 and C2, 5292 Color display stations only, or 5555 Models C01 and F01). The parameter is specified as an expression of the form (*COLOR value).
The valid values for the color parameter are:
If the color parameter is not specified, the default is BLU. This parameter is ignored if it is specified for a window on a monochrome display.
The display-attribute parameter specifies the display attributes of the border characters. The parameter is specified as an expression of the form (*DSPATR [value1 [value2 [value3...]]]). If more than one DSPATR value is used, they are combined to form one DSPATR that is used for the entire border.
The valid values for the display-attributes values are:
There is no default for display-attributes.
The characters parameter specifies the characters that make up the border. The parameter is specified as an expression of the form (*CHAR 'border-characters'). The border character value is an 8-character string that defines the border characters in the following order:
top-left-corner top-border top-right-corner left-border right-border bottom-left-corner bottom-border bottom-right-corner
If this parameter is not specified, the default border characters are period (.) for the upper-left and right corners and the top and bottom borders, colon (:) for the left and right borders and lower-left and right corners. Although any displayable character can be specified as a border character, it is recommended that you use invariant characters.
If the WDWBORDER keyword is specified at the record level, the WINDOW or PULLDOWN keyword must also be specified on the same record. If a WINDOW keyword that references another window is also specified, a warning message is issued.
Option indicators are valid for this keyword.
You can specify more than one WDWBORDER on a record. If you specify the WDWBORDER keyword more than once at the file level or at a record level, the parameters for the keywords that are in effect are combined on the same level. If different values are specified for the same parameter, the parameter value of the first keyword is used.
If the WDWBORDER keyword is specified both at the file level and on a window or pull-down definition record, the parameter values defined at both levels are combined. If different values are specified for the same parameter, the parameter value at the record level is used.
