====== MODAL property (System) ======

==== Description ====

Enables or disables all existing top-level Presentation Server forms that belong to the application.  This is sometimes referred to as "setting the application modality".

 


 
==== Property Value ====
 
 
This property is a simple Boolean value when used with Get_Property. If TRUE$ then all Presentation Server forms are disabled (unless an exception ID was declared – see Set_Property below).
 
 
 
When used with Set_Property this property value is a @fm-delimited array like so:
 
 
 
<1> Boolean disable flag – Set to TRUE$ to disable all Presentation Server forms.  Set to FALSE$ to re-enable them.
 
<2> Exception ID – optional, contains the name of a form to exclude when the disable flag is set to TRUE$
