Remarks

SET DISPLAY changes the font size for the main Visual FoxPro window. The size of the main Visual FoxPro window is increased if necessary to accommodate the number of lines required by the option you specify. If the graphical status bar appears when you issue SET DISPLAY, it is turned off.

Visual FoxPro generates an error message if an option isn't supported by your video hardware.

The SET MESSAGE line is reset to the last line of the main Visual FoxPro window whenever SET DISPLAY is issued.
