The WinEditAllowed property is used to determine and configure the actions allowed on a control when the window switches to "Allow end users to modify the UI" mode.
Example
// Allows the size and position to be modified in the window
// except for the OK button
WIN_MyWindow.WinEditMode = weSelection + wePosition + weSize
BTN_OK.WinEditAllowed = weNone
WinEdActive(WIN_MyWindow, True)
// Check the authorizations
IF BitwiseAND(MySelf.WinEditAllowed, weSelection) = weSelection THEN
Trace("Selection allowed")
END

<Result>: Integer constant (or combination of constants)
Combination of the following constants:
weAddRepositionableNoteThe end user can add a repositionable note in the window.
weAddWireThe end user can add a wire between several controls.
weChangeTooltipThe end user can modify the tooltips of the controls.
weChangeWireThe end user can modify the wires between the controls.
weMoveControlThe end user can move controls.
weMultiSelectionThe end user can select several controls at the same time.
Caution: This constant requires the use of the weSelection constant.
wePositionThe end user can move controls.
weResizeControlThe end user can resize the controls.
weSelectionThe end user can select controls.
weSizeThe end user can resize controls.
<Control used>: Control name
Name of the control to be used.

WD Graphic Objects Training (WINDEV): WD Graphic Objects
[ + ] This example illustrates the power of WLanguage in object oriented programming.
This example is a graphic object editor.

It is possible to:
- move, resize objects
- make selections with a lasso or a mouse
- cut/copy/paste objects
- delete/duplicate objects
- save the created documents and print them.

The main technical features presented and documented are:
- management of an object clipboard
- UNDO/REDO management
- serialization and deserialization of objects
- algorithms for managing graphic objects (proportional resizing, management of move rules, etc...)
