The Symbol Definition line indicates which symbols are defined for the following functions:
This symbol indicates the start of an existing field. This symbol automatically replaces the New‑field symbol after the field is added to the layout.
Place this symbol at the position where you want the field to end. If no End symbol is used, the field implicitly ends at the next Start symbol or at the end of the panel line.
Place this symbol at the position where you want a new field to start. The field is added to the layout when you press the Enter key.
Type this symbol over the Start‑field symbol to delete the field.
This symbol indicates that the field is a repeating field. CA Ideal supplies the Repeat symbol when you define a field as repeating on the Field Summary Table. You cannot enter the repeat symbol.
Type this symbol over the Start‑field symbol to move a field to a new location. The Destination symbol must mark the target location.
Type this symbol over the Start‑field symbol to mark a field to copy to a new location. The Destination symbol must mark the target location.
Place this symbol at the target location for a copied or moved field.
This value indicates the width of the panel in columns. The Width value is for display only. You cannot change it.
The default field symbols are set on the PANEL SESSION OPTIONS fill‑in. You can change the field symbols on the Layout screen by typing the symbol over the existing symbol on the Symbol Definition line. Do not use any symbol that is already in use for another function or that you need to use in the panel text. Symbols on the Symbol Definition line are evaluated before the field definition area of the Layout screen.
Note: When you edit existing panels using CA Ideal r11, the default values for move, copy, and destination might conflict with existing symbol definitions and panel data. An error message displays. You must change the conflicting symbol on the Symbol Definition line.
