3 – Description
You must specify at least one qualifier.
For each display specified, the MOVE command simply creates a
window of the same dimensions elsewhere on the screen and maps
the display to it, while maintaining the relative position of the
text within the window.
The MOVE command does not change the order of a display on the
display pasteboard. Depending on the relative order of displays,
the MOVE command can cause the display to hide or uncover another
display or be hidden by another display, partially or totally.
A display can be moved only up to the edge of the screen.
For a list of the keypad-key definitions associated with the MOVE
command, type Help Keypad_Definitions_CI. Also, use the SHOW KEY
command to determine the current key definitions.
