RelativeVerticalSize enumeration

Specifies relatively to what the height of a shape or a text frame is calculated vertically.

public enum RelativeVerticalSize

Values

NameValueDescription
Margin0Specifies that the height is calculated relatively to the space between the top and the bottom margins.
Page1Specifies that the height is calculated relatively to the page height.
TopMargin2Specifies that the height is calculated relatively to the top margin area size.
BottomMargin3Specifies that the height is calculated relatively to the bottom margin area size.
InnerMargin4Specifies that the height is calculated relatively to the inside margin area size, to the top margin area size for odd pages and to the bottom margin area size for even pages.
OuterMargin5Specifies that the height is calculated relatively to the outside margin area size, to the bottom margin area size for odd pages and to the top margin area size for even pages.
Default1Default value is Margin.

Examples

Shows how to set relative size and position.

Document doc = new Document();
DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder(doc);

// Adding a simple shape with absolute size and position.
Shape shape = builder.InsertShape(ShapeType.Rectangle, 100, 40);
// Set WrapType to WrapType.None since Inline shapes are automatically converted to absolute units.
shape.WrapType = WrapType.None;

// Checking and setting the relative horizontal size.
if (shape.RelativeHorizontalSize == RelativeHorizontalSize.Default)
{
    // Setting the horizontal size binding to Margin.
    shape.RelativeHorizontalSize = RelativeHorizontalSize.Margin;
    // Setting the width to 50% of Margin width.
    shape.WidthRelative = 50;
}

// Checking and setting the relative vertical size.
if (shape.RelativeVerticalSize == RelativeVerticalSize.Default)
{
    // Setting the vertical size binding to Margin.
    shape.RelativeVerticalSize = RelativeVerticalSize.Margin;
    // Setting the heigh to 30% of Margin height.
    shape.HeightRelative = 30;
}

// Checking and setting the relative vertical position.
if (shape.RelativeVerticalPosition == RelativeVerticalPosition.Paragraph)
{
    // etting the position binding to TopMargin.
    shape.RelativeVerticalPosition = RelativeVerticalPosition.TopMargin;
    // Setting relative Top to 30% of TopMargin position.
    shape.TopRelative = 30;
}

// Checking and setting the relative horizontal position.
if (shape.RelativeHorizontalPosition == RelativeHorizontalPosition.Default)
{
    // Setting the position binding to RightMargin.
    shape.RelativeHorizontalPosition = RelativeHorizontalPosition.RightMargin;
    // The position relative value can be negative.
    shape.LeftRelative = -260;
}

doc.Save(ArtifactsDir + "Shape.RelativeSizeAndPosition.docx");
