Important Notice

The pages on this site contain documentation for very old MS-DOS software, purely for historical purposes. If you're looking for up-to-date documentation, particularly for programming, you should not rely on the information found here, as it will be woefully out of date.

     Winstyle («winstyle»)
 
     Advances through the following series of window styles, starting
     from the current style:
 
     Horizontal Scroll Bar    Vertical Scroll Bar
     No                       No
     No                       Yes
     Yes                      No
     Yes                      Yes
 
     When the horizontal scroll bar is not shown, a maximized window
     does not show its bottom border. Similarly, when the vertical
     scroll bar is not shown, a maximized window does not show its left
     and right borders. PWB always displays the title bar.
 
     To get the "clean-screen" look, maximize the window and advance
     the window style until the borders disappear.
     See: Maximize
 
     Default
 
     Set the default window style with the Defwinstyle switch.
     See: Defwinstyle
 
     Returns
 
     True:  Changed window style.
     False: No windows open.
 
     Update
 
     The no-border state in PWB 1.x is not available in PWB 2.00.
     In PWB 2.00, when a window is maximized and no scroll bars are
     present, PWB displays the window without borders.
