Static Styles

OS/2 Windows Explanation
SS_AUTOSIZE - Allows automatic sizing of the static based on its text. The cx and cy components of the size are set to -1 (OS/2 Version 2.x and above).
SS_BITMAP SS_BITMAP Draws a bitmap. The resource ID for the bitmap resource is determined in the same way as for the SS_ICON style. The bitmap resource should be in the current application resource file.
SS_BKGNDFRAME SS_WHITEFRAME Creates a box whose frame has the background colour.
SS_BKGNDRECT SS_WHITERECT Creates a rectangle filled with the background colour.
SS_FGNDFRAME SS_BLACKFRAME Creates a box whose frame has the foreground colour.
SS_FGNDRECT SS_BLACKRECT Creates a rectangle filled with the foreground colour.
SS_GROUPBOX - Creates a box whose upper left corner contains control text. This option is useful for enclosing groups of similar controls such as radio buttons or check boxes in a box.
SS_HALFTONEFRAME SS_GRAYFRAME Creates a box whose frame has halftone shading.
SS_HALFTONERECT SS_GRAYRECT Creates a rectangle filled with halftone shading.
SS_ICON SS_ICON Creates an icon. The text of the control is interpreted as the resource ID of the icon. The bytes that make up the text can be interpreted as numeric values or as ASCII representations of numbers, depending on the value of the first byte. If the first byte is the # character, the remaining text is assumed to be an ASCII decimal representation of the icon resource ID. If the first byte of the text is 0xFF, the second byte is the low byte of the resource ID and the third byte is the high byte of the resource ID.
SS_SYSICON - Creates a system pointer icon. The ID of the icon is taken from the control text, as in the SS_ICON style. To display this icon, the system calls the WinQuerySysPointer function with the specified ID.
SS_TEXT - Creates a box with formatted text. Various formatting options can be combined with this style to produce formatted text in the boundaries of the control. The formatting option flags are the same as those used for the WinDrawText function.
- SS_CENTER Creates a box with text centered in it. Words that extend beyond the right edge of the box are automatically wrapped to the beginning of the next line.
- SS_LEFT Creates a box with text justified on the left edge of the box. Words that extend beyond the right edge of the box are automatically wrapped to the beginning of the next line.
- SS_LEFTNOWORDWRAP Creates a box with text justified on the left edge of the box, with any tab characters expanded and words beyond the right edge of the box not wrapping to the beginning of the next line.
- SS_NOPREFIX Prevents the ampersand character (&) from being interpreted as an accelerator prefix character.
- SS_RIGHT Creates a box with text justified on the right edge of the box. Words that extend beyond the right edge of the box are automatically wrapped to the beginning of the next line.
- SS_SIMPLE Creates a single-line box of text justified on the left edge of the box.
- SS_USERITEM Creates a user-defined static item.
