Application Control Methods (GisLink)

The following methods control major application functionality.

They offer control over SIS Workspace Definitions (SWDs), child windows within the main frame window, the visibility of the main frame menu, and control over program exit.

Note: These methods are only available using GisLink created Add-Ins and SIS applications, not in ActiveX Control.
