Moves blocks in a legacy screen.

The Move blocks extraction rule moves blocks extracted from a legacy screen to a different target position in the screen (defined through the Moving layout property).

Property Type Category Description
Comment String configuration Describes the object comment to include in the documentation report.
This property generally contains an explanation about the object.
Is active boolean configuration Defines whether the extraction rule is active.
Is final boolean configuration Defines if the extraction is final, i.e. whether pending extraction rules should try to match on the current extraction rule matching blocks.

If set to true, once the rule applies on a matching block, Convertigo doesn’t apply the following rules on this block. This can be used to prevent a block from being modified by other rules.
Moving layout XMLRectangle configuration Defines the target screen zone for moved blocks.
This property allows to position the moved blocks to a specific area of the screen. The moved blocks will be updated with the specified screen zone values as positioning attributes.
The screen area is defined through four coordinates:

• x (area left corner),
• y (area upper corner),
• w (area width),
• h (area height).

All values are given in characters, with the upper left corner being (x=0, y=0). -1 represents an undefined value.
These positioning attributes have to be handled by the XSL template rule that displays the blocks.
Relative move boolean configuration Defines whether the move is relative to the original blocks position or not relative.
If set to true, blocks are moved from their original position to a number of columns and a number of lines from it. If set to false, blocks are moved at the exact defined position.
Attributes int selection Defines the presentation attributes on which the rule applies, i.e. the rule applies on blocks matching these presentation attributes.
This property allows to configure the rule so that it applies only to parts of screens having specific attributes, for example green text on black background.
Presentation attributes to configure are :

• Color: Foreground color, Background color, to choose in a list of predefined colors or “not to take into account”.
• Decoration: bold, reverse, underlined, blink, for each decoration choose between “with the decoration”, “normal” (i.e. without the decoration), or “not to take into account”.
Screen zone XMLRectangle selection Defines the screen zone on which the rule applies, i.e. the rule applies on blocks completely contained in this screen area.
This property allows to configure the rule so that it applies only to areas of screens. All blocks found within the specified perimeter are matching this screen zone and can be processed by the rule.
The screen area is defined through four coordinates:

• x (area left corner),
• y (area upper corner),
• w (area width),
• h (area height).

All values are given in characters, with the upper left corner being (x=0, y=0).
-1 represents an undefined value: (x=-1, y=-1, w=-1, h=-1) is an undefined area representing the whole screen, i.e. all blocks, whatever their coordinates, are matching this screen zone and can be processed by the rule.
Type String selection Defines, using a regular expression, to which block types the rule applies.
For example, if set to:

• static, the rule applies to blocks of static type only.
• static | field, the rule applies to blocks of static or field type only.
• [^field], the rule applies to all but field type blocks.
