Hi Brian,

I doubt, that Maurice will answer, since the last time this developer visit UT was in 1998.
Here is the default code:
SaveIt:

*
* Save the old setting
*
LPARAMETERS tuP1, tuP2, tuP3, tuP4, tuP5

THIS.cCommand    = ALLTRIM(tuP1)
THIS.cOldSetting = TRIM(PADR(SET(THIS.cCommand), 50))

DoIt:

*
* Set the new value
*
LPARAMETERS tuP1, tuP2, tuP3, tuP4, tuP5
LOCAL lcCommand, lcValue

IF TYPE('tuP2') = 'C'
   *
   * A new setting was requested so set it
   *
   lcValue = ALLTRIM(tuP2)

   lcCommand = 'SET ' + THIS.cCommand + ' ' + lcValue
   &lcCommand
ENDIF

UnDoIt:

*
* Reset the old value
*
LOCAL lcCommand
*
* A new setting was requested so set it
*
lcCommand = 'SET ' + THIS.cCommand + ' ' + THIS.cOldSetting
&lcCommand

This class in turn is based on DoUndo class with the following code in Init method:

*
* Change a settings and reset it when the object is destroyed
*
LPARAMETERS tuP1, tuP2, tuP3, tuP4, tuP5

*
* Save the old setting
*
THIS.SaveIt(tuP1, tuP2, tuP3, tuP4, tuP5)

*
* Change to the new setting
*
THIS.DoIt(tuP1, tuP2, tuP3, tuP4, tuP5)

Now, is it possible for the normal developer to understand all of this without any program documentation? :)

>>Hi everybody,

>>I got a Data Entry application project to finish, which was started by my colleague. I found, what it uses lots of classes, which seem to be originated from Maurice De Beijer (developer from Netherlands). This developer has classes like set_point, set_clock, set_confirm, etc. for each possible VFP setting. In set_clock SaveIt method I see this code:
>>

>>*
>>* Save the old setting

>>LPARAMETERS tuP1, tuP2, tuP3, tuP4, tuP5
>>LOCAL loPoint
>>
>>loPoint = CreateObject('Set_Point', '.')
>>
>>DODEFAULT(tuP1, tuP2, tuP3, tuP4, tuP5)
>>
>>THIS.cSet1 = TRIM(PADR(SET(THIS.cCommand, 1), 50))

>>
>>I'm trying to understand, why set_clock calls set_point object - is it by mistake or with some sense? Currently this application displayes time at the upper right corner of the screen, but the width of it is not enough, so I can not see seconds portion. How can I increase this width?

>>Thanks in advance.
