V6DISPLAY Attribute

Indicates whether Progress follows Version 6 rules or Version 7 rules when it lays out and displays widgets in Windows. This attribute lets you compile and execute Progress Version 6 applications on Progress Version 7 for Windows.

Data Type: LOGICAL

Access: Readable/Writeable

Applies To: SESSION System Handle

If the V6DISPLAY attribute is TRUE, Progress uses Version 6 rules to manage the display:

NOTE: PUT SCREEN output is not restorable in graphical environments.

To run an application with V6DISPLAY set to TRUE, you must compile the application with the V6DISPLAY set to TRUE.

NOTE: The Progress ADE toolset was not compiled or designed to run in V6DISPLAY mode. Running the Progress ADE in V6DISPLAY mode may result in clipped display elements and other unexpected behavior.

Setting V6DISPLAY to TRUE when running the Progress ADE toolset may also degrade application compilation performance.

This attribute provides the same functionality as the V6Display parameter in the current environment, which might be the Registry (Windows only) or an initialization file. For more information on environments, see the chapter on user interface environments in the Progress Client Deployment Guide.
