Description
First Character Position to Display
The position of the first character in the Keyword Value to be displayed as part of the substring.
For example, if a substring of the Keyword Value WASHINGTON is to be displayed in the string and the First Character Position to Display is set to 4, the substring of the Keyword Value will begin with H.
Note:This value must be equal to or greater than 1.
Minimum Width of Keyword Value to Display
The minimum length of the Keyword Value to be displayed.
If the Keyword Value is shorter than the minimum length, the value will be padded with spaces on the right to reach the minimum length. If the Keyword Value is longer than the minimum length, this value has no effect on how the substring is displayed.
