PDF417Generator.Columns Property

Gets or sets the number of bar code columns, which allows control of the logic width of the bar code.

Namespace: DevExpress.XtraPrinting.BarCode

Assembly: DevExpress.Printing.v19.2.Core.dll

Declaration

C#

[DefaultValue(1)]
public int Columns { get; set; }

VB.NET

<DefaultValue(1)>
Public Property Columns As Integer

Property Value

Type	Default	Description
Int32	1	An integer, specifying the logic width of the bar code.

Remarks

Use the Columns and PDF417Generator.Rows properties, to control the logic dimensions of the barcode.

Note

At design time, the Columns property is tied to the PDF417Generator.Rows property, so that modifying either of them causes immediate modification of its counterpart, to meet the requirements of this bar code type’s specification.

To determine the height-to-width ratio of a logical unit’s graphic representation, use the PDF417Generator.YToXRatio property.
