ETI forms

Changing the current default values for field attributes

ETI establishes initial current default values for field attributes. During field initialization, every field attribute is assigned the current default value for the attribute. As you can with menu functions, you can change or retrieve the current default attribute values by calling the appropriate function with a NULL field pointer. After the current default changes, every field created using new_field will have the new default value.


NOTE: Fields previously created do not have their attributes changed by changing the current system default.

Several of the following sections show how to change the default values for various field attributes.
