<h1 class="topictitle1">Display length</h1>
|
|
<div><p>The display length is increased for certain types of fields and
|
|
must be considered when laying out the display.</p>
|
|
<div class="p">The display length is increased by the <span class="keyword">i5/OS™</span> operating
|
|
system in the following situations: <ul><li>For numeric-only fields with editing, the display length is determined
|
|
from the edit word or the program length and the edit code.</li>
|
|
<li>For input-capable signed numeric fields, the display length is one more
|
|
than the program length.</li>
|
|
<li>The display length is one more than the program length for numeric shift
|
|
fields and for numeric-only fields without editing when these fields are input-capable
|
|
and have decimal positions greater than zero.</li>
|
|
<li>The display length for floating-point fields is 7 more than the length
|
|
specified in positions 30 through 34. The 7 extra positions are for the significand
|
|
sign, the decimal point or comma, the exponent character, the exponent sign,
|
|
and the 3 exponent digits.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</div>
|
|
<p>For an unsigned numeric field (like FIELD4 in Figure 1) with a nonzero
|
|
decimal position, the system requires a decimal character to be typed into
|
|
the field when decimal values are typed in as data. In Figure 2, 123 in FIELD4
|
|
does not require a decimal character, but 1234 does (123.4). For this field,
|
|
the display length is 6.</p>
