public:
 override int leftMode();

public override int leftMode ();

override this.leftMode : unit -> int

Public Overrides Function leftMode () As Integer

Returns

Int32

An Integer data type value that indicates how the horizontal position is calculated: -1 for an exact pixel value, or a FormLeft enumeration value.

Remarks

The following example shows a call to the leftMode method that calculates the horizontal position of a form group control, based on an exact pixel value.

static void createForm(Args _args) 
{ 
    Args args; 
    Form form; 
    FormRun formRun; 
    FormBuildDesign formBuildDesign; 
    FormBuildDataSource formBuildDataSource; 
    FormBuildStringControl formBuildStringControl; 
    FormBuildGroupControl formBuildGroupControl; 
    FormGroupControl formGroupControl; 
    int idx; 
    DictTable dictTable; 
    CustTable custTable; 
    // Create the form header. 
    form = new Form(); 
    // Add data sources to the form. 
    dictTable = new DictTable(tableNum(custTable)); 
    formBuildDataSource = form.addDataSource(dictTable.name()); 
    formBuildDataSource.table(dictTable.id()); 
    // Create the form design. 
    formBuildDesign = form.addDesign("Design"); 
    formBuildDesign.caption("myForm"); 
    // Add controls. 
    formBuildGroupControl = 
 formBuildDesign.addControl(FormControlType::Group,"Group"); 
    idx = formBuildGroupControl.id(); 
    formBuildStringControl = 
 formBuildGroupControl.addControl(FormControlType::String,"String"); 
    // Add data fields to the controls. 
    formBuildGroupControl.dataSource(formBuildDataSource.id()); 
    formBuildStringControl.dataSource(formBuildDataSource.id()); 
    formBuildStringControl.dataField(2); 
    args = new Args(); 
    args.object(form); 
    // Create the run-time form. 
    formRun = classfactory.formRunClass(args); 
    formRun.run(); 
    formRun.detach(); 
    formGroupControl = formRun.control(idx); 
    formGroupControl.leftMode(-1); 
    formGroupControl.leftValue(50); 
}
