Reports and Queries

Title presentation

The graphic strings management functions (starting with "g") are used to:
  • add drawings to the title,
  • modify the formatting of title (background color, text color, etc.) with gBackground and gPen.
For example: to change the text color and background color of a title:
CurrentTitle(EOT + gBackground(RGB(0, 255, 255)) + gPen(RGB(255, 0, 0)) + "Color test")
Special case in Windows Vista and 7: Windows that use the "Aero system" style cannot have a graphic title: the graphic part is ignored. If "Aero" is not enabled, the graphic title will be displayed as usual.

Equivalence

The following code:
CurrentTitle(<New window title>)

is equivalent to the Title property:
MyWindow.Title = <New window title
