to generate a number from a calculation.
• Distance from top is the adjusted window’s distance in pixels from the top of the screen
(Mac

Specify to generate a number from a calculation.

(Mac

Compatibility
This script step is:
• not supported in web publishing
• not supported in a FileMaker Server scheduled script
Originated in
FileMaker Pro 6.0 or earlier
Description
The adjusted window maintains the same layout, same table, same found set, and same current
record as the original window.
Notes
• Window name selection is not case-sensitive.
• It is not necessary to enter values for each option. When no value is entered,
FileMaker
Pro uses the original location and size of the window as default values.
• Minimum window height and width depend on the script user’s operating system. If the
height and width values you specify are less than the minimum, FileMaker
Pro uses the
minimum values.
• Maximum window height and width depend on the script user’s screen resolution. If the
height or width values you specify are greater than the maximum, FileMaker
Pro uses
the maximum value possible.
• You can move a window off-screen by supplying negative top and/or left values, which
can be useful for multiple monitor environments.
• Windows: FileMaker Pro orients the moved window to the top left corner of the visible
part of the application window. Note that this may not be the (0,0) point of the window,
depending on how the current file window is positioned (for example, if half of the file
window extends past the left border of the application window, you would need to scroll
to the left to see the (0,0) point of the application window).
