Changing "BOOK" size in GiD Problem Definition .prb file

Post by hasharm »

Hello All,

I am working on a macro to define certain problem types for GiD.

I am doing this by writing the .prb file ( and other files such as .cnd, .bas, etc.)

However, I don't find any way to increase the size of the graphics windows created out of the code. I mean, there is an option of "BOOK" to generate windows, how do I change the size of this window?

Here is the sample code:

PROBLEM DATA
BOOK: General Problem Data
TITLE: General
QUESTION: Problem_Title
VALUE: Default_title

Does anyone know how to tackle this?

Thanks in advance!

Harsh

The use of 'BOOK' in the .prb file (to define general data in a problemtype) allow to separate data in sub-menus and separated windows, as you said.

The final user could resize the window to fit its requirements (click the border and drag it), and when closing the window GiD will remember this size (it is saved in the gid.ini file located on the user settings folder, this folder name and location is platform dependent)
