Setting the window type for a MIAW
You can choose from seven styles of windows:
![]() |
Four document window styles: the standard document window, a document window with a zoom box and variable resize box, a document window with the variable resize box disabled, and a document window without a resize box |
![]() |
An alert box style |
![]() |
A plain box style |
![]() |
A curved-border style |
To specify the window type for a MIAW:
Assign a value for the windowType
property.
Different numerical values for the windowType
property specify different types of window styles. When you don't specify a window type, Director uses a moveable, sizable window without a zoom box and with a title bar, which is type -1. You can set the title property only for windows of type -1.
In most cases, it's best to specify window settings before you actually open the window, to avoid delays as the window redraws.
