setCellAttributes()

This method specifies the cell decoration attributes array for the specified list (in a single dialog). The attributes to specify are TTY attributes (BOLD, DIM, etc.) and a custom style. The BLINK attribute cannot be used.

In an INPUT ARRAY or DISPLAY ARRAY dialog, this method specifies attributes for each cell or a whole row. This method must be used for dialogs with only one screen array (for example, in a single DISPLAY ARRAY dialog). For multiple screen arrays in multiple dialogs, use the setArrayAttributes() method.

Syntax

attr is a program array defining the cell attributes;

type can be:

• a DYNAMIC ARRAY OF RECORD ... END RECORD (having the structure of the data array);
• a DYNAMIC ARRAY WITH DIMENSION 2 OF STRING (specifying attributes in a dynamic dialog when the row structure is defined at the runtime);
• a DYNAMIC ARRAY OF STRING (specifying attributes for complete lines instead of individual cells).
