Left Property
Syntax
set the left of {<object> | {card | cd}
<window>} to <number>
Applies to all objects, backgrounds, cards, card windows, message box, toolbar
Description
The left property of an object is the position of the left side of an object, measured in pixels, from the left side of the card window. The left property of a card window is the position of the left side of the card window, measured in pixels, from the left side of the Oracle Media Objects window.
You can use the left property to determine or change the value of item 1 of the rectangle property (left, top, right, bottom).
Changing the left property does not change the size of the object, but moves all four coordinates.
Notes
The left property of an object can also be set to a value off the card. Setting the left property to a value off the card makes the object seem as though it is hidden.
Examples
set the left of button id 1 to 34
