Use SessionScreen to set session display modes.  Modes can be set on, set off, or toggled to the opposite setting.

 

SessionScreen is provided primarily for compatibility with BIM-EDIT.  The SessionAlter command provides the ability to change the full range of session attributes. SessionAlter is often invoked from "Settings, session" of the "Options" menu.

 

SessionScreen may also be entered as SessionScr[een], SessScr[een], or Scr[een].

 

Required Operands

 

MODE Specify one of the following modes:

 

ALT is alternate font mode.  When alternate font mode is on, the alternate font is used.

 

AUD is audit display mode.  It may also be specified as AUDIT.  When audit display mode is on, the file audit trail is displayed rather than the file text.

 

STAMP is stamp mode.  When stamp mode is on, stamp information, if present, is displayed.  Note: If you wish to set the stamp format as well, it will be necessary to use the SessionAlter command.

 

 

Optional Operands

 

OPER is the mode setting desired.  Specify ON to set the mode on, OFF to set it off.  Specify TOG or T to toggle the mode to its opposite setting (for example, if the mode is currently on, TOG will set it off).

 

 Default: TOG.

 

Return Codes

 

OK Successful.

AU Auditing has not been set on for this file (response to Screen AUD).
