PutTextMaskProtectedField Property
In This Topic
Gets or sets a value that controls how the PutText method places a string of characters onto the host screen. The PutText method has two modes: Mask and LinearStream.
In Mask mode (the default), the PutText method interprets the text as a host screen image and overlays the text onto the current screen starting at the specified screen position. Where the current screen contains an unprotected field, the source string is placed in the field; where the current screen contains a protected field, that portion of the string is skipped.
In LinearStream mode, the text is placed sequentially in unprotected fields, and remaining text that exceeds the current unprotected field's length extends into the next unprotected field(s), until all the text has been placed on the screen.
