Line Control Property

Description

Height

Specifies the length of a vertical line.

Left, Top

Positions the line relative to the section borders.

Line Size

Specifies the line weight.

Locked

A locked control cannot be moved with the mouse, which prevents moving it unintentionally. Specify offsets for Left and Top to move a locked control.

Priority

Controls the drawing priority of text and pictures. For example, prevents a picture covering a text control. Controls with a low priority value are drawn first. Example: A picture with priority 10 covers a text with priority 1.

Suppress

Suppresses the control under certain conditions, such as a function or a select statement that produces either True or False (0 or 1).
