Validation String X
Use
Disables the Wimp’s calculation of text in a text+sprite icons on the iconbar.
Notes
When a text+sprite icon is displayed on the icon bar, the Wimp will automatically calculate the width of the text, and hence the icon. If an icon’s text may change, applications should calculate the largest width of all potential texts (using Wimp_TextOp 1) and create the icon with this width and then disable the Wimp’s calculation by using this validation string command.
