Options )
| Name | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
| CenterParent | No | If TRUE$ then the window is centered on its parent, otherwise it is centered on the desktop. Defaults to FALSE$. |
| WindowSize | No | This is an @fm-delimited array specifying the desired coordinates and size to move the window to: <1> Left-position (if -1 then the window is centered on the X-axis) <2> Top-position (if -1 then the window is centered on the Y-axis) <3> Width (-1 means do not adjust the window width) <4> Height (-1 means do not adjust the window height) All of these values default to -1. They must be in the same scale units as the window being centered. |
| CalcOnly | No | If TRUE$ then the window is not moved or resized, but the resulting coordinates are returned instead. Defaults to FALSE$. |
| ParentSize | No | This is an @fm-delimited array that can be used to override the size of the parent (if CenterParent is TRUE$), or the Desktop (if CenterParent is FALSE$). <1> Left-position <2> Top-position <3> Width <4> Height They must be in the same scale units as the window begin centered. |
| Options | No | This is an @fm-delimited array of options structured like so: <1> Force boundary check. If this is TRUE$ then the window is kept within the boundary of the desktop even if the WindowSize Top and Left positions have been explicitly specified. <2> Desktop "anchor" window. Contains the name of a window to use when deciding which monitor to center the window on. The window is centered on the same desktop as the anchor window. |
