The text that will be displayed in the title bar of the application's window.
Make the application window "movable." If the Standard style is selected, this means the user can left-click the title bar and drag the application window around their screen. If the Flat or Custom Mask style is selected, the user can left-click on the page surface and drag it around their screen. If the Kiosk style is selected, this option has no effect.
Make the application window always appear on top of all other windows on the desktop. The window will remain on top even if the user switches to another application.
The size that will be used for all pages in the project, in pixels. Choose from:
Make the page 200 pixels tall by 320 pixels wide.
Make the page 180 pixels tall by 320 pixels wide.
Make the page 300 pixels tall by 480 pixels wide.
Make the page 280 pixels tall by 480 pixels wide.
Make the page 425 pixels tall by 630 pixels wide. (The largest size that will fit on a standard 640x480 display.)
Make the page 405 pixels tall by 630 pixels wide. (The largest size that will fit on a standard 640x480 display.)
Make the page 545 pixels tall by 790 pixels wide. (The largest size that will fit on a standard 800x600 display.)
Make the page 525 pixels tall by 790 pixels wide. (The largest size that will fit on a standard 800x600 display.)
Make the page 713 pixels tall by 1014 pixels wide.
Make the page 693 pixels tall by 1014 pixels wide.
Make the page 969 pixels tall by 1270 pixels wide.
Make the page 949 pixels tall by 1270 pixels wide.
Specify a custom size.
Note: The Menu Bar options above are pre-specified page sizes which take into account the size of the menu bar, if enabled. To configure the menu bar, choose Project > Menu Bar.
The width of the page surface, in pixels.
Note: This setting is only available when the "Custom" page size is selected.
The height of the page surface, in pixels.
Note: This setting is only available when the "Custom" page size is selected.
A title bar and border will be displayed for the application window.
A border will be displayed around the application window with no title bar.
The application will be displayed without a title bar or border.
Note: When this option is used, the controls that normally appear on the title bar—such as the "X"-shaped close button in the upper right corner—will not be available. Make sure you provide some other way for your users to exit from the application. (For example, you could have an "Exit" button somewhere on the page.)
Make the application cover the entire screen. If the user's resolution is larger than the page size, the application window will be surrounded with a solid color of your choice that fills the user's entire screen. The application window will be displayed without a title bar or border and will be centered on their screen.
The color that will surround the page.
Make certain parts of your application's window transparent. You can use this option to make a custom window shape for your application.
To specify the areas that you want to make transparent, you need to create a transparency mask file in your favorite drawing program.
A transparency mask file is just an image where a single color represents the parts that you want to make transparent. Picture this image as being invisibly "placed over" your application's window, like a mask or a stencil.
In AutoPlay, the transparent parts of the mask should all be solid black. Wherever solid black appears in the mask image, the corresponding part of the window will be made transparent. The transparency mask acts like a "cookie cutter," cutting holes in the application's window so the user's desktop can show through.
Click the browse button to select an image file.
Take your transparency mask image and resize it to fit the page. The original image dimensions will be used to mask the page if this option is not selected.
Note: When this option is used, the controls that normally appear on the title bar—such as the "X"-shaped close button in the upper right corner—will not be available. Make sure you provide some other way for your users to exit from the application. (For example, you could have an "Exit" button somewhere on the page.)
Use a custom icon to represent the CD-ROM as seen in Windows. This icon will also appear in the top left corner of your application window if the Standard style is selected. It will also be used to represent the application on the Windows task bar. Lastly, this icon will replace the published autorun.exe icon.
Click the browse button to select a standard icon (.ico) file.
Tip: The custom icon is also applied to any compressed executable generated, should you chose to publish to a compressed executable.
Note: The custom
icon replacement occurs at build time and will only take effect when your
project is published on an Windows NT/2K/XP/Vista+ system. If your project
is published on a Windows 95/98/ME system, the custom icon will appear
in the top left corner of your application and on the taskbar, but it
will not replace the executable's icon.
A project published on a Windows NT/2K/XP/Vista+ system will function fine
on all other OS's. Windows NT/2K/XP/Vista+ is only required for the build
process to adjust the executable's icon.
Display the application's title in the Windows task bar. This is the normal Windows application behavior.
Display the application's icon in the system tray. The system tray is normally on the right hand side of the Windows task bar.
Do not display anything in the task bar or system tray for the application.
Make the application window resizable. Enabling this option allows the user to resize the application window either by dragging the title bar, or by pressing the maximize/restore button. This option only applies to projects using the Standard and Bordered window styles.
Tip: To manipulate the size, position, visibility, etc. of objects when the application is resized, use the On Size event of the page's Action tab.
The minimum page width to use at runtime if the window is resizeable.
Note: This is the minimum page width, not the window width. The minimum window width can be set using the global function g_OnGetMinMaxInfo.
The minimum page height to use at runtime if the window is resizable.
Note: This is the minimum page height, not the window height. The minimum window height can be set using the global function g_OnGetMinMaxInfo.
Controls the style for all tooltips throughout the runtime.
The traditional tooltip style.
Balloon style tooltips. See note below for information on tooltip titles and text.
Similar to standard tooltips, except these tooltips are themed and support the title option discussed below.
Note: Balloon tooltips and Extended tooltips allow you to specify a title for your tooltips using "|" as a delimiter. For example: "My Tooltip|My Title". "My tooltip" will be your standard tooltip text, and "My Title" will be presented above "My Tooltip" in bold.
Tip: If you want a newline in your tooltip text, use "\r\n". For example, "My First Line\r\nMy Second Line|My Title". Newlines are not supported in the Title text for Balloon or Extended styles.
Controls the sub-theme for all xButton objects in the project that use the Office 2007 theme. You can choose from a variety of Office 2007 "looks."
