Wx3270/Help/Main

Description
This is the main window for wx3270.



The window has three sections:
 * The menu bar at the top presents buttons and menus for controlling wx3270.
 * The middle shows the contents of the emulated 3270 display.
 * The Operator Information Area (OIA) at the bottom displays the state of the session with the host.

Menu bar
Most menu bar icons can be either left-clicked to perform an action, or right-clicked to present a menu of actions.

Screen resizing
If the display area is resized by changing a setting such as the font or model number, the main window is automatically resized. The resulting size is the minimum necessary to accommodate the new display area.

By contrast, if the main window is resized with the mouse by dragging the edge or corner of the window border, the opposite happens: the font size is adjusted to make the display area fit within the desired window size. Because the font proportions are fixed, the resulting fit may not be exact; in that case, the display area will "float" with extra top/bottom or side margins. If this is not desired, the Snap button on the menu bar can be used to change the window size to the minimum necessary for the new font size.
