2 | When a click is applied to the object (CLICK). |
4 | When a double-click is applied to the object (DOUBLECLICK). |
8 | When a right-click is applied to the object (RIGHTCLICK). |
16 | When an ActiveX object raises a callback event (ACTIVEX). |
32 | When a click occurs on the header of the object (HEADER). |
64 | When the object gets the focus (GOTFOCUS). |
128 | When the object loses focus (LOSTFOCUS). |
256 | When the object loses focus after being modified (LOSTFOCUSMODIFIED). |

Provides extra information about the object being used.
Valid Values
A character string, up to 512 characters long either blank or in JSON format.
Remarks
The WdgCSS values for the objects involved present either a blank value or a free-format JSON syntax containing additional information about the object. This extra information may be Data Dictionary fields valid only to the particular object or implemented for future use.
Example
{"icon": "c:/images/zx.ico", "smallincrement":30}ZIM:X allows JSON data format to be retrieved by the means of the $FindJSON function if the above value would be stored in FFs.WdgCSS:
LIST FFs FORMAT $FindJSON(WdgCSS, "smallincrement")
30
