5250 Emulator Screen Size

[Marty Coindreau]

Asking for a friend....

With the Valence 5250 Emulator, how does one validate what screen size is present. My past experience was to lock the screen size setting in with 27x132 through the IBMi Access Client Solutions for the session and walk away.

Thanks,

Marty

Hi Marty,
I tried calling one of our 5250 27x132 programs thru the emulator and it expanded the 5250 screen to fit the larger size. I liked the fact that the font size didn't shrink but the screen expanded for the larger dimensions. At least it didn't error out like the ACS would if you didn't define the screen as 27x132.
Thanks,
Bruce

Marty Coindreau: Fusion5250 defaults to 24x80 unless it senses a 27x132 screen, then it adjusts automatically. There is no setting like in ACS.
