This is a list of option for Control,You may move the image area by entering one of the
following commands in this field and pressing Enter:
-n
Backward
The image area moves n lines toward the top line.
+n
Forward
The image area moves n lines toward the bottom line.
W-n
Backward
The image area moves n columns toward the first
column.
W+n
Forward
The image area moves n columns toward the last column.
N
The image area moves to the nth line.
Wn
The image area moves to the nth column.
*TOP
The image area moves to the first line.
*BOT
The image area moves to show the last line.
*VIEW
A simulated printout will be displayed on the
workstation.
The Overlay Utility will create a temporary overlay
which can be accessed by the Client Access AFP Workbench Viewer. A command will be sent to
the workstation to start the AFP Workbench Viewer. Another PC window will be created and
the AFP Workbench Viewer will attempt to display the temporary overlay.
The workstation must be a programmable workstation and
attached to the AS/400 system with Client Access for OS/400 V3R1M3 or later. The Client
Access Workbench Viewer must also be installed. The USED specified in the Client Access
configuration to access the AS/400 must be the same as that used to sign on to the AS/400
session or have all object authority. If not, "message CPF2189, Not authorized to
object ... ", will be returned. The maximum number of times the *VIEW command can be
used while designing an overlay is 25.

The most important parameter is "Line Placement". Here is a help text of Line
replacement.
Line placement - HELP
Specify the line placement used to draw the line. This
parameter is used only when the measurement method is Row/Column.
1 Middle
Line is drawn in the middle of character cells.
2 Border
Horizontal line is drawn at the top of character
cells. Vertical line is drawn at the left of character cells.
The default value is 1 Middle. |
If the lines or lines of boxes are drawn on the text line, you should change the
"Line Placement" to 2. Please pay attention to the default value. And you can
move text by it's measurement method inch, also. Generally speaking, Line replacement is
easy to adjust better than measurement method.

If you change the font of text, nothing happens on the screen, It is not a WYSIWYG. You
can check the actual font size after print it out.

you can hide obstacle element by F16. The sample screen below shows *B094,*T016 and *T018.
And there is one more text element '*T012' under the *B094. If you want to change element
of the *T012, you should push F16 on the *B094 to hide itself.

1=Create
Creates a source overlay. You can create a new source
overlay. Type 1 in the Opt column, and the name of the source overlay you want to create
in the first line in the list.
Note: Before you create a source overlay, you need to
create a source overlay file by selecting 1 (Create) on the Work with Source Overlay Files
display.
2=Change
Changes a source overlay.
You can change a source overlay and save it with
either the same name or a new name. That is, you can create a new source overlay based on

overlay in a different source overlay file or in a different library. Type 2 in the Opt

How to use an overlay object
It is very simple.
- Create the Overlay object by option 9 in AFPU or by CRTOVL command. (I always used AFPU
with option 9).
- Set DEVTYPE(*AFPDS) FRONTOVL(xxxxxx)
in printer file by command CRTPRTF/CHGPRTF/OVRPRTF
- CALL PGM
- DLTOVR if you need.
Example
OVRPRTF PS52T65
DEVTYPE(*AFPDS) FRONTOVL(PS52R65C)
CALL PS52R65C
DLTOVR PS52T65 |
