10.10 Vertical Positioning Commands
The following commands provide cursor positioning on the vertical axis.
10.10.1 Move CAP Vertical (Rows)
A signed value field indicates relative movement: plus (+) or minus (-) signs move CAP down-
ward and upward relative to CAP, respectively. The absence of a sign indicates absolute
movement: CAP moves from the top of the logical page, an absolute distance computed by:
Distance from top of logical page = top margin + (3/4 x VMI/48.0) + (value VMI)/48.0
Except for the following, the effect of this command is limited to the logical page:
44
Positive relative positioning allows movement to the next logical page.
44
Negative relative positioning allows movement above the top of form, up to the limit of the
logical page or the top of the physical page.
After power on or reset, CAP moves to the top of form, if not already there.
