This property applies when the window's ADJUSTMENT property is other than _WIN_ADJUST_NONE and when the object is not part of a Split bar pane.

When executed, its value is taken into account before initializing the window and when the window's ADJUSTMENT property is modified.

At this point, the object's VISIBILITY property must be True. Otherwise, the control will not be adjusted.
 

The modification is only taken into account if the window's ADJUSTMENT property is _WIN_ADJUST_NONE. Otherwise it is ignored.
