Question:
I want to have a form that does not appear in a MDI (multiple document interface) frame. Can I do this?
Answer:
In Version 2 of Power Objects, you can run the same application with three different ‘looks.’ You change the look of an application with a switch when you run the .PO file.
If you run an application, such as a Windows95 application Sample.PO
, with the standard command line
PORUN32.EXE Sample.PO
the application will run with the standard MDI look.
If you run the same application with the -SDI switch, such as
PORUN32.EXE -SDI Sample.PO
the application will appear with a single document interface look.
If you run the same application with the -noframe switch, such as
PORUN32.EXE -noframe Sample.PO
the application will appear without a frame.
Your users can still get access to the menus and push buttons that would appear in the toolbar by clicking the right mouse button.
