PANEL
GUI\PANEL "Title" HelpFile [/DETACH]
Activate the Graphic-User-Interface input mode for variables. A window
with the specified title is created, but not mapped to the screen.
Successive LET commands will create widgets in this window to allow to
modify variables by entering values in the widgets. Command GUI\GO
"Command" will map the window to the screen. Once the proper input has
been defined, clicking on the "GO" button will setup all the related
variables in the main program, and execute the associated command.
Clicking on button "UPDATE" will only set the variables. Clicking on
button "ABORT" will return without modifying the variables.
Help is available in the window through the "HELP" button, but also
clicking in any prompt area.
See LET command for details.
If option /DETACH is present, a menubar is created instead of a normal
window. Several buttons can be attached to this menubar using the
GUI\BUTTON and GUI\MENU commands, but no variables can be set in this
mode. The menubar is mapped when command GUI\GO is typed.
