Border (Type of variable)
In french: Cadre
The Border type is used to handle a border through programming. The characteristics of this border can be modified by several WLangage properties.
A Border type can be used:
  • in the controls of a report (Border property).
  • in the drawing functions (dBorder).
Remark: For more details on the declaration of this type of variable and the use of WLanguage properties, see Declaring a variable.
Example
// Define the characteristics of the borders for report controls
MyBorder is Border
MyBorder.Color = LightRed
MyBorder.Thickness = 5
 
// Borders for the NumNbPage control in the report
NumNbPage.Border = MyBorder
// Modify the characteristics of the borders for the NumNbPage control
NumNbPage.Border.Thickness = 1
 
// Get the characteristics of the borders for the NumNbPage control
MyBorder2 is Border = NumNbPage.Border
// Define the border characteristics
MyBorder is Border
MyBorder.Color = LightRed
MyBorder.Thickness = 5
 
// Borders for the NumNbPage control in the report
NumNbPage.Border = MyBorder
// Modify the characteristics of the borders for the NumNbPage control
NumNbPage.Border.TopLeftCorner.Width = 2
NumNbPage.Border.TopLeftCorner.Height = 3
Remarks

Default characteristics of border

By default, a border found in a report has the following characteristics:
  • thickness set to 0. The border is visible if the thickness is greater than 0. The border is invisible if the thickness is set to 0.
  • black.
  • solid line.
  • no rounded corners.
  • all the border edges are displayed.
To define the characteristics of a border through programming, use the border properties.

WLanguage properties that can be used with the Border type

The following properties can be used to handle a Border variable.
Property nameType usedEffect
BottomLeftCornerCharacteristics of the lower-left corner:
  • Width property: width of border corner (real).
  • Height Property: height of border corner (real).
Not supported in XLS cells.
BottomRightCornerCharacteristics of the lower-right corner:
  • Width property: width of border corner (real).
  • Height Property: height of border corner (real).
Not supported in XLS cells.
ColorIntegerBorder color. This color can correspond to:
This property can be used:
  • In edit mode: the color of all the borders changes.
  • In read mode, this property returns:
    • the color of the borders if all the borders have the same color.
    • the ColorUndefined constant if all the borders do not have the same color.
EdgesInteger constantReturns and modifies the presence of edges. This property can correspond to a combination of the following options:
  • BorderNone: the border has no edge.
  • BorderBottom: the border has a bottom edge.
  • BorderRight: the border has a right edge.
  • BorderLeft: the border has a left edge.
  • BorderTop: the border has a top edge.
  • BorderAll: all the border edges are displayed.
LineInteger constantReturns and modifies the type of line for the border (see the next paragraph).
  • In edit mode, modifies the type of line for all borders.
  • In read mode, returns:
    • the type of line for the borders if this parameter is identical for all borders.
    • the TypeUndefined constant if all the borders do not have the same line.
LineBottomCharacteristics of the bottom line:
  • Color property: Line color: This color can correspond to an RGB color (returned by RGB), or to a preset color.
  • Thickness property (Real): Line thickness (in millimeters in printouts, and in pixels in graphic functions).
  • Type property (Integer constant): Type of line (see the next paragraph).
Not supported in XLS cells.
LineLeftCharacteristics of the left line:
  • Color property: Line color: This color can correspond to an RGB color (returned by RGB), or to a preset color.
  • Thickness property (Real): Line thickness (in millimeters in printouts, and in pixels in graphic functions).
  • Type property (Integer constant): Type of line (see the next paragraph).
Not supported in XLS cells.
LineRightCharacteristics of the right line:
  • Color property: Line color: This color can correspond to an RGB color (returned by RGB), or to a preset color.
  • Thickness property (Real): Line thickness (in millimeters in printouts, and in pixels in graphic functions).
  • Type property (Integer constant): Type of line (see the next paragraph).
Not supported in XLS cells.
LineTopCharacteristics of the top line:
  • Color property: Line color: This color can correspond to an RGB color (returned by RGB), or to a preset color.
  • Thickness property (Real): Line thickness (in millimeters in printouts, and in pixels in graphic functions).
  • Type property (Integer constant): Type of line (see the next paragraph).
Not supported in XLS cells.
RoundRealValue of rounding for the corners. Corresponds to the radius of rounding.
  • In modification, modifies the rounding of all corners.
  • In read mode, returns:
    • the width and the height of corners if these parameters are identical for all corners.
    • the RoundingUndefined constant if all the corners do not have the same width and height.
Not supported:
  • in the XLS cells.
  • in the prargraphs of Word Processing documents.
ThicknessRealReturns and modifies the thickness of the border (in millimeters in the prints and in pixels in the graphic functions).
  • In edit mode, changes the thickness of all the borders.
  • In read mode, returns:
    • the thickness of the borders if the parameter is the same for all the borders.
    • the ThicknessUndefined constant if all the borders do not have the same thickness.
Not supported in XLS cells.
TopLeftCornerCharacteristics of the upper-left corner:
  • Width property: width of border corner (real).
  • Height Property: height of border corner (real).
Not supported in XLS cells.
TopRightCornerCharacteristics of the upper-right corner:
  • Width property: width of border corner (real).
  • Height Property: height of border corner (real).
Not supported in XLS cells.

These properties can be used:
  • on the Border variable. Example:
    MyBorder is Border
    MyBorder.Color = LightRed
    MyBorder.Thickness = 5
  • on the Border property of the element used.
    // Modify a characteristic of the border for the NumNbPage element
    NumNbPage.Border.Thickness = 1
Remark: The characteristics of a border defined through programming can also be directly assigned to an element:
// Define the border characteristics
MyBorder is Border
MyBorder.Color = LightRed
MyBorder.Thickness = 5
 
// Borders for the NumNbPage control in the report
NumNbPage.Border = MyBorder

Type of line for the border

The Type property is used to define and get the type of line of the border. The available constants are as follows (caution: the effect of these constants will differ when the border is used in a report or when it is used for a cell in an Excel document).
ConstantEffect in ExcelEffect in a reportEffect in dBorder
LineNoneNo line.No line.No line.
