**GetLineMode **()

{{blk2blue.jpg|blk2blue.jpg}}

The **GetLineMode** method is used to get up to four different line styles for the active menu.

This method uses the following bit-mapped equates:

**MenuLine:Default       EQUATE(0)**

**MenuLine:ShowGutter    EQUATE(1)**

**MenuLine:FullSeparator EQUATE(2)**

**MenuLine:Embossed      EQUATE(4)**

To get which line mode is active, use the BAND function to test the value retrieved.

**Return Value:**   BYTE

**Implementation:**

The **GetLineMode** method is a tool for the developer to detect which line mode is active, and to toggle it if needed.

**Example:**

** IF NOT ****MenuStyleMgr.GetLineMode()**

**  LOC:MenuLineStyle = 'Using Default** **'**

** END**

** **

** IF NOT ****MenuStyleMgr.GetLineMode() > 3**

**  LOC:MenuLineStyle = 'Embossed is active'**

** END**
