PPGLayout.AddSpacer
v4.2
Use this method as a tool for fine tuning the layout of a property page. The most basic usage is to provide just a height value to create a horizontal band of blank space. It can also be used to control the horizontal placement of other controls that are part of the same row.
PPGItem PPGLayout.AddSpacer( Int32 in_opt_width, Int32 in_opt_Height ); |
oReturn = PPGLayout.AddSpacer( [Width], [Height] ); |
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Width | Long | Width of the spacer (in pixels). It is only necessary to
specify this value when there are other controls in the same row.
Default Value: 0 |
| Height | Long | Height of the text. If not specified the spacer will be a
standard control height (22 pixels)
Default Value: 0 |
