  • UIM Menu with blank lines between options

    Does anyone know how to create a UIM menu and have the options display on every other line instead of every line. Our shop has a standard to list the menu options with a blank line in between them. I've checked the IBM I Application Display Programming manual (Chapter 16) and can find nothing on hOw to accomplish this. Thanks in advance for any ideas.

    Maybe insert "fake" menu options every other one? I haven't tried this, so it's a total WAG. If the "fake" options are conditioned with something impossible, they should be blanked out. Something similar to a menu option that only a *SECOFR sees while everyone else sees blanks. (I don't like this idea myself. But I find the 'standard' a little odd to begin with, so...?)

    There are only two hard things in Computer Science: cache invalidation, naming things and off-by-one errors.

    Why is it that all of the instruments seeking intelligent life in the universe are pointed away from Earth?

      Thanks Tom. I did try putting "fake" options in and it didn't work, but I did not use conditional code. I'll give it a shot. Again Thanks for taking the time to help.
