XY Justification Keyword
<XYJustification N>
Keyword and parameter to determine the justification used with the <x> and <y> keywords. The default value of zero for N makes X and Y determine the coordinates of the left and top elements of the displayed image. N = 1 makes X and Y specify the center of the displayed image, 2 makes X and Y determine the bottom right coordinates
and as of version 4.0.1.0 of DMDX a value of 3 determines the bottom left
coordinates (useful for the
<Instruction> keyword).
<XYJustification> is evaluated as the item is parsed before the display is generated so multiple uses within an item are meaningless, only the last used value will have any effect.
Currently there's an ambiguity in the code
that draws frames that looks like a real nightmare to resolve. It's result
is such that the specification of just one axis' position (ie, just using <x>
or <y>)
will not work with
<XYJustification>,
both axes must be specified. Hence the use of
<XY> to
position frames when using <XYJustification>
is highly recommended.
