Description
The adjusted window maintains the same layout, same table, same found set, and same current
record as the original window.
Notes
• Window name selection is not case-sensitive.
• It is not necessary to enter values for each option. When no value is entered, FileMaker Pro
uses the original location and size of the window as default values.
• Minimum window height and width depend on the script user’s operating system. If the
height and width values you specify are less than the minimum, FileMaker
Pro uses the
minimum values.
• Maximum window height and width depend on the script user’s screen resolution. If the
height or width values you specify are greater than the maximum, FileMaker
Pro uses the
maximum value possible.
