What Is a Frame?
A frame is a rectangular display area within a window that Progress uses to display field-level widgets and other frames. To see a frame, run this procedure:
Figure 19–1 shows the output of this procedure.
Figure 19–1: Frame
![]()
Progress allocates frames automatically to hold field-level widgets referenced by screen display and input statements. Except for the PUT statement, all statements that display data or require user interaction place widgets in frames. Two or more statements can use the same frame.
You can also define and reference frames explicitly and contain frames within other frames. For more information on containing frames within frames, see the "Frame Families" section.
