Defining Elements in the Screen View
In the screen view, you can design an overlay, a record layout, or a page layout by
entering the print image on the display. Because the print image is displayed on
the character display, while the actual image is printed on the All Points
Addressable (APA) printer, you can see only the approximate image of the overlay,
the record layout, or the page layout on the display.
Layout of the Screen View
The screen view of the design display is shown:

The following table explains each field in the above display.
Field Name Description
Columns This field shows you the current image area that appears on the
display. If the More... message appears at the right side of the bottom
line of the image area, you may move from (scroll) this area to design
another area.
Control You may scroll the image area window by entering scrolling commands
in this field and pressing the Enter key.
| When designing an overlay, you may also invoke the AFP Workbench
| Viewer by entering the *VIEW command to see a simulated printout of
| the overlay being designed. The AFP Workbench Viewer will not
| display bar codes created with the Bar Code Object Content
| Architecture (BCOCA).
Image area The image area is the upper part of the display. It shows the
approximate print image of an overlay, a record layout, or a page
layout. You can see what kind of element has been entered and where
in the image area it was entered.
Key entry area The key entry area is the lower part of the display. This area is used to
enter the parameters to define the elements. It appears only when you
define or change an element.
