VARBTYPE can be any of the following words:
define - show defined strings (see [DEFINE][2]) number - show number variables string - show string and string list variables array - show array variables matrix - show matrix variables image - show image variables vector - show vector variables solid - show solid variables declare - show all variables
The SHOW DIALOG command displays the contents of an interactive menu in a text format suitable for re-creating that menu. In other words, if the output of this command is stored in a text file, that file could be read to re-create the entire menu. For this command DLOGNAME is the name of the stored dialog, and the FLG argument has the following meaning (combine by adding):
1 - only the stored dialog display (i.e., Macintosh DLOG and DITL resources) are listed -- otherwise the stored menu command and help strings will also be shown (see [MENU][2]) 2 - scale the widget rectangle dimensions appropriately for moving the dialog to an XWindows program
The optional scaling factors XSCAL, YPOS_SCAL, and YSIZ_SCAL can be used to resize the dialog display. Note that the vertical widget position and size can be scaled independently (the overall dialog height is scaled using YPOS_SCAL). By default all scale factors are 1.0, but if FLG&2 then XSCAL=1.4 and YSIZ_SCAL=0.9.
