SHOWOFF
Function
Turn off display of information to the screen.
Syntax
SHOWOFF No arguments are required
Remark
This statement allows your PPL application to turn off writing
information to the local and remote displays. Used in conjunction with
SHOWSTAT(), OPENCAP, CLOSECAP, and SHOWON it allows you to temporarily
turn off the display while capturing output to the screen. This can be
useful anytime you want to automate a feature for the user and allow them
to download the resulting capture file instead of spending lots of time
online.
Examples
BOOLEAN ss
LET ss = SHOWSTAT()
SHOWOFF
OPENCAP "CAP"+STRING(PCBNODE()),ocFlag
IF (ocFlag) THEN
DIR "U;NS"
CLOSECAP
KBDSTUFF "FLAG CAP"+STRING(PCBNODE())+CHR(13)
ENDIF
IF (ss) THEN
SHOWON
ELSE
SHOWOFF
ENDIF
