Declaration

C#

void SetPreferredWidth(
    float Width,
    WidthType widthType
)

)

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
Width	Single	A float value that is the preferred width of a table.
widthType	WidthType	A WidthType enumeration value that specifies how the preferred width should be interpreted.

Remarks

If the width type is set to WidthType.Fixed, the width value is interpreted in DocumentUnit.Document units by default or in units that are specified by the Document.Unit property (so they are currently in effect).

The width type determines how the specified width should be interpreted when calculating the table layout.
