Cell Size

This property defines the size (both height and width) of the cell used for positioning the various controls inside the Tool-Bar control.

The value must comply with the following specification:

{ ControlType FONT [FontHandle] [SEPARATE] } { [OVERLAPPED] }

The cell size is the space the ControlType needs to show the character "0" without truncating it. ControlType can be LABEL, the default, or ENTRY-FIELD. When ENTRY-FIELD is specified, the cell is larger.

FontHandle is the font used to calculate the cell size. If not specified, the font set in the Control Font property will be used.

When the SEPARATE clause is specified, the cell size is increased, so that controls placed on contiguous lines or columns are not too close to each other.

When the OVERLAPPED clause is specified, the cell size is left unchanged and controls placed on contiguous lines or columns look joint. This is the default setting.
