Description

The OBJECT SET INDICATOR TYPE command modifies the type of progress indicator for the thermometer(s) designated by the object and * parameters in the current process.

The indicator type defines the display variant of the thermometer. For more information, refer to Indicators in the Design Reference manual.

Passing the optional * parameter indicates that the object parameter is an object name (string). If you do not pass this parameter, it indicates that the object parameter is a field or variable. In this case, you pass a field or variable reference instead of a string (field or variable object only).

In the indicator parameter, pass the type of indicator you want to display. You can use one of the following constants, found in the "Form Objects (Properties)" theme:
