Underline

Underline specifies whether the text of a window element, container, or widget must be underlined or not.

Theme property filter XML code:

Possible values:

true, false

Default value:

specified by SystemTheme.css

Influence and behavior:

This property specifies whether the text of the font element will be underlined:

default runtime appearance
property set in theme
resulting runtime appearance

 

By setting the Bold property to the whole application (= without filters), you change the appearance of window elements like toolbar buttons or messages invoked by fgl_winmessage().

 

At runtime, you can use css styles to specify whether the text of the font element will be underlined:

 

At runtime, you can use ui method - <var>.Underline() - to underline the text of the element.

For this purpose, you must

• define a variable of the ui.Font data type,
• apply <var>.Underline() to this variable, and

• apply the font to the form element by the <var>.setFont() method:

  DEFINE fnt ui.Font

  ...

  LET fnt.Underline=TRUE

  ...

  CALL lb.SetFont(fnt)

You can find examples of how to use the <var>.Underline() method here and in the example program.
