x | X-position |
X coordinate of the control relative to its parent | |
y | Y-position |
Y coordinate of the control relative to its parent | |
w | Width |
Width of the control in pixels | |
h | Height |
Height of the control in pixels | |
xmode | X-mode |
This setting specified whether the control width is fixed width, whether it floats relative to the right-hand side of its block, or whether it stretches as its block width changes. The setting affects the interpretation of the width value. | |
ymode | Y-mode |
This setting specified whether the control height is fixed width, whether it floats relative to the bottom of its block, or whether it stretches as its block height changes. The setting affects the interpretation of the height value. | |

onset | On set |
Script routine to be invoked when the value in the control is set from the database. A value like #Set invokes an external function called onItemSet; otherwise define a function called eventFunc whose three arguments will be the control item, the query row number and the value. | |
onchange | On change |
Script routine to be invoked when the value in the field is changed by the user. A value like #Change invokes an external function called onLinkChange; otherwise define a function called eventFunc whose three arguments will be the control item, the query row number and the new value. | |
notes | Notes |
The Notes setting may be used for any arbitrary notes, for instance for documentation. Rekall does nothing with the value, other than to preserve it. |
