Re: SUBFTR01 and SUBFTR02 - OVERLAY vs CLRL and inserting blanks -- RPG400-L

Off the HEADER, Frances, not the footer. :)

Booth, Duane,
I took the overlay off both footers - still showing pieces of each on the other.
Sending blanks then the text to that area in each footer just blanked everything out.
Next week I'll tackle it again. Thanks,

It sounds like you need to remove the OVERLAY keywork from one or two of your display records.

The first display record you write to the screen shouldn't have an OVERLAY keyword, this will clear the screen:

Write Header (No OVERLAY - Clears Screen)
Write Body (OVERLAY - Header stays visable)
Write Footer (OVERLAY - Header & Body stay visable)

Booth,
That is the problem. I don't want to show both at once. The first belongs with the first subfile and SUBFTR02 goes with SUBFIL02.

I must have worded my message incorrectly.

The first subfile is displayed with its footer; user select one line; second subfile is displayed with 2nd footer.
Just need to do it the right way - blank it out in the second footer or write one in between to clear text from the first?
Thanks,

I am curious to the purpose of displaying two footers at once? Why not
just display one or the other?

Simon,
My other issue is that the first footer is still displaying in places along with the second.

There is some code in there placing blanks in the line before the footer info.

I put some identifying remarks in its place and could see what was still showing from one footer to the other.

Maybe I should just write blanks to cover up the entire first footer (or another blank footer) then write the second.

There is one of your old posts that might help out, but I'm not sure about the comment about reordering the write of records to the display device.
Which would be the best way to code for this?

>From your earlier post:
"Yes, it is possible. What you are describing is OVERLAP not OVERLAY. OVERLAY only works when each record format occupies discrete rows of the panel. To accomplish OVERLAP you need to specify CLRL(*NO).

You cannot specify CLRL on a SFL or SFLCTL record so you'll need to specify it on your so-called "footer" record. You'll also need to change the order in which you write the records to the display device. "
