.Dd January 1, 2001 .Dt FORMS 3 .Os .Sh NAME .Nm field_just , .Nm set_field_just .Nd form library .Sh LIBRARY .Lb libform .Sh SYNOPSIS n form.h .Ft int .Fn field_just "FIELD *field" .Ft int .Fn set_field_just "FIELD *field" "int justification" .Sh DESCRIPTION Field justification is only applied to static fields, a dynamic field will not be justified. The default justification for a field is NO_JUSTIFICATION. The .Fn field_just will return the current justification value of the given field and the justification may be set by calling the .Fn set_field_just function. .Sh PARAMETERS The following are the valid justifications for a field:
p l -tag -width NO_JUSTIFICATION -compact t NO_JUSTIFICATION No justification is to be applied to the field. In practice, this is the same as JUSTIFY_LEFT. t JUSTIFY_RIGHT The field will be right justified. That is, the end of each line will be butted up against the right hand side of the field. t JUSTIFY_LEFT The field will be left justified. That is, the start of each line will be butted up against the left hand side of the field. t JUSTIFY_CENTER The field will be centre justified, padding will be applied to either end of the line to make the line centred in the field. .El .Sh RETURN VALUES The functions will return one of the following error values:
p l -tag -width E_UNKNOWN_COMMAND -compact t Er E_OK The function was successful. t Er E_CURRENT The field specified is the currently active one on the form. t Er E_BAD_ARGUMENT A bad argument was passed to the function. .El .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr curses 3 , .Xr forms 3 .Sh NOTES The header n form.h automatically includes both n curses.h and n eti.h .
