Note:  When the session is embedded In-Place in a compound OLE document, the set form of this function (byte 5 = X'01') always returns 0 but has no effect.

A 16- or 32-bit word containing the status set bits if the request option is 1 (set status). The following codes are valid return values if the request option is set status:

X'0001'  Change the window size. (Not valid with minimize, maximize, restore, or move.)
X'0002'  Move the window. (Not valid with minimize, maximize, size, or restore.)  X'0004'  ZORDER window replacement.
X'0008'  Set the window to visible.
X'0010'  Set the window to invisible.
X'0080'  Activate the window. (Sets focus to window and places it in the foreground unless ZORDER is specified. In this case, the ZORDER placement is used.)
X'0100'  Deactivate the window. (Deactivates the window and makes the window the bottom window unless ZORDER is also specified. In this case, the ZORDER placement is used.)
X'0400'  Set the window to minimized. (Not valid with maximize, restore, size, or move.)
X'0800'  Set the window to maximized. (Not valid with minimize, restore, size, or move.)
X'1000'  Restore the window. (Not valid with minimize, maximize, size, or move.)

An incorrect option was specified.

Remarks

 

The logical terminal (LT) windows use character cells. When resizing the LT windows, the LT rounds the number to prevent character cell truncation. The requested size and position might be slightly different from what was requested. Follow the set option with a query option to determine the final Presentation Manager window position and size. All x and y coordinate positions and sizes are in pels.
