Scrolling

If the table you are editing is too large to fit vertically on the display screen of your terminal, you will see a series of plus signs (++++) at the left of your screen. These signs indicate that there is additional information that may be viewed. If the plus signs appear at the top of the list of rows, there is additional information above what is currently displayed. If the plus signs appear at the bottom of the list of rows, there is additional information below what is currently displayed.

To view these additional rows you must scroll through the table (see Table 125)

Table 125. Scroll Up/Down

PF Key

Function

Description

PF7

Scroll Up

Enter the number of rows you wish to scroll in the command line. If the command line is left blank, the display will scroll up one full screen.

PF8

Scroll Down

Enter the number of rows you wish to scroll in the command line. If the command line is left blank, the display will scroll down one full screen.

When you are in the Edit/Browse Table screen, not all the fields in a particular row(s) may fit horizontally on the screen. In this case, you may scroll left or right (see Table 126):

Table 126. Scroll Left/Right

PF Key

Function

Description

PF10

Scroll Left

Enter the number of columns that you wish to scroll in the command line. If the command line is left blank, the display will scroll to the left most field.

PF11

Scroll Right

Enter the number of columns that you wish to scroll in the command line. If the command line is left blank, the display will scroll one screen to the right.

Note that the number of columns that can be scrolled left and right when using these PF keys depends on the size and number of frozen fields in the table. If the frozen fields take up half of your screen, then the balance of the screen will be used to scroll the other fields in the table left and right.
