tab(-10, AG_BEVEL); bevelflags; chr(127); Tab(-10,x) Syntax Notes
AG_BEVEL (13) provides a way to set the values that are on the Settings...Beveling menu.
This function has both a subroutine and a print tab implementation.
Parameters
bevelflags
Typically 255 to turn on beveling and replace all the standard line drawing characters with 3D versions. 0 deactivates beveling.
Response
none
Example
? TAB(-10,AG_BEVEL);"255";chr(127); ! turn beveling on
? TAB(-10,AG_BEVEL);str(0);chr(127); ! turn beveling off
Notes
Note that beveling works best with a gray or pastel background; see AG_PALETTE for details on defining colors from within the program. Also note that you can turn on beveling via the Settings...Beveling menu, and then save it permanently in the settings file. For more information, see Beveling.
