MDL file (kept for backward compatibility): Window description
 Warning
From version 2024, this feature is no longer available.
The MDL file is the file used to generate a RAD window. This file contains the entire description of the pattern to generate. This description is made of two distinct parts: - the description of the pattern,
- the description of the window.
This help page only presents the code used to describe the window. To present this code in details, the script of a Form.mdl pattern is used. CAUTION: In version 12, the RAD was entirely rebuilt. MDL files are kept for backward compatibility. For more details, see New RAD patterns. The different parts of the window description 1.
