Property Value

Type	Description
DXGraphicsUnit	Indicates the drawing unit.

Available values:

Name	Description
World	The world coordinate system unit.
Display	The measurement units of the display device. Typically pixels for video displays, and 1/100 inch for printers.
Pixel	The device pixel.
Point	The printer’s point (1/72 inch).
Inch	The inch.
Document	The document unit (1/300 inch).

Remarks

This property allows you to customize measurement units for a report. The default value for this property is DXGraphicsUnit.Pixel. When a user supplies dimensions for bricks, dimension values are supplied in current drawing units. After brick or rectangle creation, these units are automatically converted to DXGraphicsUnit.Document units. So, to change the size of a brick or rectangle after its creation, new values must be entered in DXGraphicsUnit.Document units.
