This property only applies to system commands. With data source commands, the window is closed whether or not the command is executed successfully. For multiple commands, this property is applied to each command individually. Therefore if the first command in the multiple command sequence succeeds, the window will close before the rest of the commands are executed. NOTE: The commandCloseWindowOnSuccess property is not supported in the Display Server.

Use the commandConfirmText property to write your own text for the confirmation dialog, otherwise text from the command property will be used.

mouseOverText	Enter a tool tip for this scale. To display the tool tip, move your mouse over the object. To enter a multi-line tool tip, use \n to delimit the lines (e.g. my\nscale). NOTE: The object must be visible (i.e. visFlag property is selected), in order for the tool tip to be visible.

Label Properties
 

Property Name	Description

Inside Left - Position inside the left side of the background rectangle. Center - Position in the center of the background rectangle. Inside Right - Position inside the right side of the background rectangle. Right - Position outside the right side of the background rectangle.

Title Top - Position along the top line of the background rectangle. Tab Top - Position tab just above the background rectangle. NOTE: Height and width of the label tab is dependent on the height and width of the text. Use the labelMinTabWidth property to specify a minimum tab width. Inside Top - Position inside the top of the background rectangle. Center - Position in the center of the background rectangle. Inside Bottom - Position inside the bottom of the background rectangle. Bottom - Position just below the background rectangle. Outside Bottom - Position well below the background rectangle.

Object Properties
 

Property Name	Description
anchor	Specify where to anchor an object in the display. NOTE: If an object has the dock property set, the anchor property will be ignored. The anchor property is only applied when the dimensions of the display are modified, either by editing Background Properties or resizing the window in Layout mode Select None, or one or more the following options: None Object not anchored. This is the default. Top Anchor top of object at top of display. Left Anchor left side of object at left of display. Bottom Anchor bottom of object at bottom of display. Right Anchor right side of object at right of display. When a display is resized, the number of pixels between an anchored object and the specified location remain constant. If an object is anchored on opposite sides (i.e. Top and Bottom or Left and Right), the object will be stretched to fill the available space.
dock	Specify the docking location of an object in the display. Select from the following options: None Object is not docked. This is the default. Top Dock object at top of display. Left Dock object at left of display. Bottom Dock object at bottom of display. Right Dock object at right of display. Fill Dock object in available space remaining in the display after all docked objects are positioned. If the dimensions of the display are modified, either by editing Background Properties or resizing the window in Layout mode, the properties (objX, objY, objWidth and objHeight) of docked objects will automatically adapt to match the new size of the display. When multiple objects are docked to the same side of the display, the first object is docked against the side of the display, the next object is docked against the edge of the first object, and so on. When objects are docked to multiple sides of the display, the order in which objects were added to the display controls docking position. For example, let's say the first object added to the display is docked at the Top and the second object is docked at the Left. Consequently, the first object will fill the entire width of the display and the second object will fill the left side of the display from the bottom of the first object to the bottom of the display. Objects in a display have the dock property set to Fill, are laid out across a grid in the available space remaining after all docked objects are positioned. By default, the grid has one row and as many columns as there are objects in the display. You can modify the grid in the Background Properties dialog. Once an object is docked, there are some limitations on how that object can be modified. Docked objects cannot be dragged or repositioned using objX and objY properties. Docked objects cannot be resized using the objWidth or objHeight properties. To resize you must drag on the resize handle. Docked objects can only be resized toward the center of the display (e.g. If an object is docked at the Top, only its height can be increased by dragging down toward the center of the display). Docked objects set to Fill cannot be resized at all. Docked objects cannot be moved using Align. Non-docked objects can be aligned against a docked object, but a docked object will not move to align against another object. Docked objects are ignored by Distribute.
objHeight	Set height of the object in pixels.
objName	Name given to facilitate object management via the Object List dialog. Select Tools>Object List.
objWidth	Set width of the object in pixels.
objX	Set the x position of the object.
objY	Set the y position of the object.
transparencyPercent	Set transparency of the object. Enter a value between 0 and 100. A value of 0, the default, sets the object to be completely opaque. A value of 100 will render the object completely transparent.
visFlag	Control visibility of the object.
