SectionPage.Landscape Property

Gets or sets a value that specifies whether the page’s orientation is landscape.

Namespace: DevExpress.XtraRichEdit.API.Native

Assembly: DevExpress.RichEdit.v24.1.Core.dll

NuGet Packages: DevExpress.RichEdit.Core, DevExpress.Win.Navigation

Declaration

C#

bool Landscape { get; set; }

VB.NET

Property Landscape As Boolean

Property Value

Type	Description
Boolean	true, if the page’s orientation is landscape; false, if the page has the standard portrait orientation.

Remarks

When you set the Landscape property, the RichEditControl rotates this page so that its width becomes height and vice versa. Relative width and height values are not validated, therefore, a situation in which the page in landscape mode has a height greater than its width, is not uncommon. To prevent this from happening, check the page dimensions prior to switching page orientation, as illustrated below.

C#

if(section.Page.Width < section.Page.Height)
    {
        section.Page.Landscape = true;
    }

VB.NET

If section.Page.Width < section.Page.Height Then
        section.Page.Landscape = True
End If
