SELSTART Property
PLBCMP GUI Only
The SELSTART property defines the beginning of the selected text within a SLIDER or the start of the current selection for a RICHEDITTEXT object. The property uses the following format:
SELSTART={value}
Note the following:
SELSTART may be used in CREATE, SETPROP, or GETPROP statements of a SLIDER object and GETPROP or SETPROP statements for a RICHEDITTEXT object.
For a SLIDER, the highlighted output does not occur when the SELLENGTH property value plus the SELSTART value is greater than 32767. The highlighted output may not occur if {value} is negative. {value} is specified in logical user units.
For a RICHEDITTEXT, {value} is specified in characters.
The SELSTART property is not supported for a SLIDER when using the PL/B Web Server.
