- FIXED
- Specifies that the default font for decimal combo-boxes with LIST-ITEM-PAIRS is fixed.
In Release 9.1D, a combo-box representing a decimal field or variable with LIST-ITEM-PAIRS
displays values using a fixed font, by default. Starting with Release 9.1D07, you can use
the -combofont startup parameter (without the FIXED
option) to change the default font to a proportional font.
Starting with Release 10.0A, a decimal combo-box with LIST-ITEM-PAIRS displays values using
a proportional font, by default. To change the default font back to a fixed font, specify
the -combofont startup parameter with the FIXED option.
A decimal combo-box with LIST-ITEMS displays values using a fixed font, by default. If you
change a decimal combo-box with LIST-ITEMS to LIST-ITEM-PAIRS, after it is realized, the
font automatically changes from fixed to proportional (unless you specified the
-combofont startup parameter with the FIXED option).
