Form Property Page |
The Form property page specifies the dimensions, color, and title of the data entry form for the open document. This property page is displayed when you click Form in the navigation pane of the Form Properties dialog.
The following options are available.
Properties

Hide Frame: Specifies that the data entry form frame, including the title bar, is not visible. Available when Full Screen is selected.
Specify Title: Specifies that you can enter a custom title that will appear on the title bar of the data entry form. Not available when Hide Frame is selected.
Width: Specifies the horizontal dimension of the data entry form. The maximum dimension is determined by the screen resolution of your monitor.

Reading Order: Specifies the reading order for the data entry form. Any controls whose reading order is set to Auto inherit the form's reading order.

To determine where the reading order can be configured for a specific control, review the control's property pages.
Position: Specifies the position of the data entry form on the monitor screen when it appears at print time. When Full Screen is selected, the position setting affects where the controls are located within the data entry form.
Remember Position: Specifies that when a user prints the document, the data entry form appears on the monitor screen in the same location to which the same user previously moved it. To use this feature, the document must be saved in BarTender 2016 or a later version.
Include Standard Buttons: Specifies that the default Back, Print, Cancel, and Help buttons are added to the form.
