Defining Objects
28 Designing a Form
If you have unequal row height and would like all the rows to
be the same height, then select
Make Rows Equal Height
.
OmniForm resizes rows to an equal height without changing
table size. If you had two rows, one four centimeters high and
the other two centimeters high, for example, each would be
resized to three centimeters high.

Defining a Table Cell
A table cell contains a fill text object by default. See “Defining a Fill Text
Object” on page 5-17 for more information. See any relevant entry in this
section if the table cell contains another type of object.
A table cell can contain more than one object. It can also contain
graphics. See “Placing Objects in Table Cells” on page 5-43 for
information.
Defining a Fill Graphic Object
Choose
Object Definition...
in the Format menu to open the Fill Graphic
Definition dialog box when a fill graphic object is selected.
1 Type a unique name in the
Name
text box.
Each graphic object must have a unique name. A descriptive
name such as
Logo
makes a fill graphic field easy to find when
importing, exporting, and changing tab order.
2 You can either select or deselect the
Tab Stop
. Select
Tab Sto p
so
that the cursor automatically moves to the selected field when
the user presses the Tab key. Deselect
Tab Stop
so that the cursor
tabs past the selected field.
3Select
Help Message
and type a message in the text box. This
message will appear in the status bar in fill view when the cur-
sor is in that field.
See page 5-20 for an example of a help message.
