Lines Property, SftMaskCalculator Object

Defines the maximum number of lines of intermediate results saved and displayed.

Syntax

Get

C#short Count = object.Lines;
VB.NETCount = object.Lines As Short
C++short Count = object->Lines;
short Count = object->GetLines();
CHRESULT object->get_Lines(short* Count);

Put

C#short object.Lines = Count;
VB.NETobject.Lines = Count As Short
C++short object->Lines = Count;
void object->PutLines(short Count);
CHRESULT object->put_Lines(short Count);

object

A SftMaskCalculator object.

Count

Defines the maximum number of lines of intermediate results saved and displayed, between 1 and 40.

Comments

The Lines property defines the maximum number of lines of intermediate results saved and displayed.

The VisibleLines property defines the maximum number of lines of intermediate results visible at any time. If the VisibleLines property is less than the Lines property, a scrollbar appears as soon as the number of lines defined using the VisibleLines property is shown.
