Deleting Boxes
We have some old programs that contain red boxes around the text/input fields. Is there a way to get rid of them?

Re: Deleting Boxes
Sorry, I'm not sure what you are referring to. Can you post a screen-shot?

Re: Deleting Boxes
My guess is that your DDS for the display is putting out these red boxes. Perhaps it is using the WDWBORDER keyword to do this? Or maybe these are done manually by puttng reverse-image blanks on the screen?
Are you looking for Genie to see these things and remove them so that you don't have to change the DDS? In that case, these "boxes" would still show up in other emulators like Client Access, but would not show up in Genie. Is that what you're looking for? Otherwise, you could just edit the DDS and remove the border...

Re: Deleting Boxes
To expand on Scott's solutions, if you are indeed looking for Genie to remove these things (without modifying the DDS) you can do so as follows:
Select "Enable Empty Elements" for this screen in the Genie Designer: After selecting this option, the red border elements should now be selectable like any other element in the designer. From there you can simply select them and change their visibility properties to "hidden". You will then need to save these changes for this screen in your skin.
If you have the Genie designer disabled for your skin, you can renable it within genie admin in the general settings tab:
