Methods > Settings > SettingsRulersParamSet method

Remarks

Sets one of the rulers settings for the waveform analyzer. Value of single settings can be obtained through the SettingsRulersParamGet method.

This method is an alternative to the SettingsRulersSet method and is provided with the purpose of allowing single settings modifications when dealing with languages like JavaScript where data structures are not easy to implement.

2	bTicksLeft member of the WANALYZER_RULERS_SETTINGS data structure
3	bVisibleRight member of the WANALYZER_RULERS_SETTINGS data structure
4	bTicksRight member of the WANALYZER_RULERS_SETTINGS data structure
5	bVisibleTop member of the WANALYZER_RULERS_SETTINGS data structure
6	bTicksTop member of the WANALYZER_RULERS_SETTINGS data structure
7	bVisibleBottom member of the WANALYZER_RULERS_SETTINGS data structure
8	bTicksBottom member of the WANALYZER_RULERS_SETTINGS data structure
9	colorBackground member of the WANALYZER_RULERS_SETTINGS data structure

14	nVertRulerWidthInPix member of the WANALYZER_RULERS_SETTINGS data structure
15	fTimeTicksFrequencyInPix member of the WANALYZER_RULERS_SETTINGS data structure

strValue

String representing the numerical value to set: the multimedia engine will manage converting the string into the corresponding numerical value.

The value is formatted with the following rules:

•	Color values are formatted like "#RRGGBB" where:

- "#" represents the control character used for formatting colors in HTML code: the presence of this character is mandatory

- RR represents the hexadecimal value of the color's red component

- GG represents the hexadecimal value of the color's green component

- BB represents the hexadecimal value of the color's blue component

For example the green color will be represented with the value "#00FF00"

•	Boolean values are rendered as

- "1" or "True" for indicating the boolean "true"

- "0" or "False" for indicating the boolean "false"

Return value

Value	Meaning

Empty string	An error occurred: see the LastError property for further error details or for a list of the possible error values.
Valid string	String containing the value of the requested parameter
