WFLASTCOL()
Returns the position of the rightmost column of the formatted area of a
window
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Syntax
WFLASTCOL([<lRelative>]) --> nValue
Argument
<lRelative> Designates an optional parameter. If this parameter is
.T., then the function returns the absolute value of the difference
between WLASTCOL() and WFLASTCOL().
Returns
The function either returns the position of the rightmost column of the
formatted area within a window, or the difference between the outer
border and the formatted area of a window.
Description
This function is particularly useful if information in a window must be
saved to a file. There are four functions (WFCOL(), WFLASTCOL(),
WFROW(), WFLASTROW()) which allow you to establish the coordinates of
the formatted area of a window. This information can then be saved for
later use.
When you use <lRelative>, you can determine the difference between the
outer border and formatted area of a window. You can pass this value
later when you call WFORMAT() to restore the old value.
Note
. When used in Window 0, the function returns the value for
WBOARD().
Example
Notice that WBOX() corresponds to a WFORMAT(1, 1, 1, 1):
CLEAR
WOPEN(10, 10, 20, 70)
WBOX()
? WFROW(), WFROW(.T.) // 11, 1
? WFCOL(), WFCOL(.T.) // 11, 1
? WFLASTROW(), WFLASTROW(.T.) // 19, 1
? WFLASTCOL(), WFLASTCOL(.T.) // 69, 1
INKEY(0)
WCLOSE()
RETURN
