Preventing scroll bars on the RSView32 main

window

If a graphic display is larger than the RSView32 main window, scroll
bars will appear on the main window and will remain there even if
subsequent displays are smaller than the main window.

To prevent scroll bars, all graphic displays must be smaller than the
working area in the RSView32 main window. Keep in mind that the
size of the working area depends on several factors: the size you make
the window, your monitor’s display resolution, and whether you select
the RSView32 toolbar, status bar, and activity bar (on the View menu).

To minimize scroll bars, RSView32 tries to position all graphic
displays within the working area of the RSView32 main window unless
explicitly overridden by the /X and /Y parameters of the Display
command.

To ensure the RSView32 main window never has scroll bars, select the
Size to Main Window at Runtime option for large displays. Do not
select this option for smaller graphic displays that are not meant to fill
the screen. However, be sure to position the smaller displays so they
are completely visible, otherwise scroll bars might appear.

You can also turn scroll bars on and off using the Windows registry
keys. To change the registry key settings for scroll bars, use the
Registry Configuration tool in the RSView32 Resource Kit

. For

details about the Resource Kit, see the RSView32 Resource Kit Help.
