= clearCtlBuddyStyle =

== Syntax ==
{{int clearCtlBuddyStyle(int n, int buddy, int flags)}}

== Arguments ==
:'''n'''
::The number of the ((STANDARD)) or ((SLIDER)) control to modify
:'''buddy'''
::Set to '''1''' to modify the edit box, or to '''0''' to modify the text label
:'''flags'''
::The style flags to clear from this control.

== Style Flags ==
|| ES_CENTER || Centers the text in the edit box when editing ||
|| ES_LEFT || Left-aligns the text in the edit box when editing ||
|| ES_LOWERCASE || Forces all letters to be lowercase in the editbox ||
|| ES_NUMBER || Only allow numbers to be typed into the editbox ||
|| ES_RIGHT || Right-aligns the text in the edit box when editing ||
|| ES_UPPERCASE || Forces all letters to be uppercase in the editbox ||
|| SS_BLACKFRAME || Adds a black rectangle around the text label ||
|| SS_BLACKRECT || Replaces the label with a blackbox ||
|| SS_ETCHEDFRAME || Adds an etched frame to the text label ||
|| SS_ETCHEDHORZ || Adds an etched frame to the text label ||
|| SS_GRAYFRAME || Adds a gray rectangle around the text label  ||
|| SS_GRAYRECT || Replaces the label with a gray box ||
|| SS_WHITEFRAME || Adds a white rectangle around the text label  ||
|| SS_WHITERECT || Replaces the label with a white box ||
|| WS_BORDER || Enables the single border outline of the editbox ||

== Return ==
Returns false if control number n is out of range or unused.  Otherwise, returns the result of the internal SetWindowPos function (true if succeeded, false otherwise).

== Description ==
Clears the given window style of the labels and edit boxes from a ((STANDARD)) or ((SLIDER)) control.

== Comment ==
This function must be followed by ((refreshCtl)) or ((refreshWindow)), or the changes may not take effect.
Due to a bug, ((refreshCtl)) and ((refreshWindow)) may effect the text label rendering differently.

== Example ==
<code>
%ffp

ctl(0): PUSHBUTTON, "Make Changes", Size=(60, *)
ctl(1): PUSHBUTTON, "Clear Changes", Size=(60, *), Pos=(*,20)
ctl[4]: STANDARD, "Example"

OnCtl(n):{

if (n==0 && e==FME_CLICKED) {

// Make editbox Uppercase & Right-aligned
    setCtlBuddyStyle(4, 1, WS_BORDER | ES_UPPERCASE | ES_RIGHT);
    setCtlBuddyStyle(4, 2, SS_GRAYFRAME);
    refreshWindow();
  }

if (n==1 && e==FME_CLICKED) {

// Clear previously set styles
    clearCtlBuddyStyle(4, 1, WS_BORDER | ES_UPPERCASE | ES_RIGHT);
    clearCtlBuddyStyle(4, 2, SS_GRAYFRAME);
    refreshWindow();
  }

return false;
}
