Plane (Property) In french: Plan
The Plane property is used to: - Get the active plane of a window (or report) or the plane to which a control belongs.
- Change the active plane of a window (or report) or associate a control with another plane.
   Get the active plane of an element. - Change the active plane of an element.
Remarks: - A plane is a "layer":
- of a window,
- of a report.
- of an element (page, page template, cell, internal page, etc.).
Several planes cannot be viewed at the same time (in the window editor, page editor, report editor, or in your applications). - In a window or report, each control can:
- belong to no plane. This control will always be displayed, regardless of the current plane.
- belong to a plane. This control will be displayed when the corresponding plane is visible.
- belong to several planes. This control will be displayed when one of the planes associated with the control is active (i.e. visible).
- The planes in the reports are mainly used to replace substitution blocks: simply position the controls on several planes and activate the desired plane when printing.
- Planes can be activated for the following elements:
- pages
- internal pages
- cells
- layout areas
- popups
- supercontrols
- control templates,
- page templates.
Syntax
Get the active plane of a window (or report) or the plane to which a control belongs Hide the details
<Plane number> = <Element used>.Plane
<Plane number>: Integer or character string - Number of the active plane in the specified window.
- Number of the active plane in the specified report.
- Number of the plane to which the specified control belongs.
- Numbers of the planes (separated by a comma) to which the control belongs.
<Element used>: Name of control, window or report Name of the element to be used: - Control name.
- Name of the window.
- Report name.
Changing the active plane of a window (or report) or associating a control with another plane Hide the details
<Element used>.Plane = <New plane>
<Element used>: Name of control, window or report Name of the element to be used: - Control name.
- Name of the window.
- Report name.
<New plane>: Integer or character string - Number of the plane to activate. If this number is greater than the number of existing planes, only the controls that are not assigned to a plane will be displayed.
- Number of the plane associated with the specified control. If this number does not correspond to the current plane, the control will not be displayed.
- Numbers of the planes associated with the control. These numbers are in a comma-separated string.
  Name of the plane to activate (for windows only). The plane name is defined in the plane management window in the window editor.
Remarks Planes and internal reports The Plane property can be used: - directly on the internal report. In this case, this property applies to the controls of the internal report.
For example, to display plane 2 of the internal report from the host report or directly in the internal report, use the following line of code:
<Name of internal report>.Plane = 2 - directly on the window that hosts the Internal Report control. In this case, the property will only apply to the controls in the host report (including the Internal Report control if it is associated with a plane). The content of the internal report will not be modified. The following line of code should be used:
Limitations The Plane property cannot be used on: - an option in a Check Box or Radio Button control,
- a row in a Table, List Box or Combo Box control,
- a cell in a Table control,
- a column in a Table control,
- a window menu,
- a tab pane,
- a group of controls,
