form_field_opts(3)			       form_field_opts(3)

NAME
       form_field_opts - set and get field options

SYNOPSIS
       #include <form.h>
       int set_field_opts(FIELD *field, OPTIONS opts);
       int field_opts_on(FIELD *field, OPTIONS opts);
       int field_opts_off(FIELD *field, OPTIONS opts);
       OPTIONS field_opts(const FIELD *field);

DESCRIPTION
       The  function  set_field_opts  sets  all the given field's
       option bits (field  option  bits	 may  be  logically-OR'ed
       together).

       The function field_opts_on turns on the given option bits,
       and leaves others alone.

       The function field_opts_off turns  off  the  given  option
       bits, and leaves others alone.

       The function field_opts returns the field's current option
       bits.

       The following options are defined (all are on by default):

       O_VISIBLE
	    The	 field is displayed.  If this option is off, dis-
	    play of the field is suppressed,

       O_ACTIVE
	    The field is  visited  during  processing.	 If  this
	    option  is	off,  the  field will not be reachable by
	    navigation keys.  Please  notice  that  an	invisible
	    field appears to be inactive also.

       O_PUBLIC
	    The	 field contents are displayed as data is entered.

       O_EDIT
	    The field can be edited.

       O_WRAP
	    Words that don't fit on a line  are	 wrapped  to  the
	    next line.	Words are blank-separated.

       O_BLANK
	    The	 field is cleared whenever a character is entered
	    at the first position.

       O_AUTOSKIP
	    Skip to the next field when this one fills
