    Gets or sets the relative position of a shape on the page.

    Namespace: DevExpress.XtraRichEdit.API.Native

    Assembly: DevExpress.RichEdit.v25.1.Core.dll

    NuGet Package: DevExpress.RichEdit.Core

    Declaration

    PointF OffsetRelative { get; set; }

    Property Value

    Type Description
    PointF

    An object that defines the horizontal and vertical offsets (in percentage) relative to the specified elements. Valid values range from -10 (-1000%) to 10 (1000%).

    Remarks

    Use the OffsetRelative property to specify a floating shape’s position (in percentage) relative to the document elements defined by the Shape.RelativeHorizontalPosition and Shape.RelativeVerticalPosition properties.

    Note

    The OffsetRelative property is in effect when the Shape.HorizontalAlignment and Shape.VerticalAlignment properties are set to None.

    The example below creates a rectangle and places it on the page as follows:

    • the horizontal offset is equal to 20% of the page width,

    • the vertical offset is equal to 10% of the page height.

    Document document = wordProcessor.Document;
    // Set the measurement unit to inches.
    document.Unit = DevExpress.Office.DocumentUnit.Inch;
    // Create a rectangle.
    Shape rectangle = document.Shapes.InsertShape(document.Range.Start, ShapeGeometryPreset.Rectangle, new SizeF(2.5f, 1.5f));
    // Specify the rectangle position on the page.
    rectangle.RelativeHorizontalPosition = ShapeRelativeHorizontalPosition.Page;
    rectangle.RelativeVerticalPosition = ShapeRelativeVerticalPosition.Page;
    rectangle.OffsetRelative = new PointF(0.2f, 0.1f);
