VAXTPU SET(DISPLAY_VALUE) — VMS 5.5-2H4

 SET(DISPLAY_VALUE)

    Sets the display value of the specified window.  VAXTPU uses a window's
    display value, which is an integer value, to determine if a given
    record in a buffer should be made visible in a given window.  If the
    record's display value is greater than or equal to the window's
    setting, VAXTPU makes the record visible in that window; otherwise,
    VAXTPU makes the record invisible.  To set a record's display value,
    use the SET (RECORD_ATTRIBUTE) built-in.

 Syntax

    SET (DISPLAY_VALUE, window, display_value_integer)

 Parameters

     DISPLAY_VALUE          A keyword indicating that the SET built-in is
                            being used to set the display value for a
                            window.

     window                 The window whose display value you want to set.

     display_value_integer  An integer from -127 to +127.

 Example

    The following statement gives the current window a display value of 10.
    This means that any record whose display value is less than 10 is
    invisible in the specified window.

    SET (DISPLAY_VALUE, CURRENT_WINDOW, 10);
