Note:
- This subroutine operates on the currently setup Menu as defined by a prior
call to UI_DEFINE_MENU or UI_USE_MENU.
- The XCOR Argument overrides the default VAlue Field X Position for the
current Menu (when displayed in Text Mode). A
negative or zero position will restore the UIPACK default.
- The WIDTH Argument overrides the default Value Field Width for the
current Menu (when displayed in Text Mode). A
negative Width will disable the display of the Value Text associated with
each Button altogether, whilst a Width of Zero will restore the UIPACK default.
- The TRFLAG Argument overrides the default field truncation indicator. The
default is for a value string that is longer than the value field width
to be terminated by ellipsis (...). This default may be overridden by setting
TRFLAG as .FALSE.
- All Arguments are optional and, if omitted, will result in the UIPACK
default being restored.
