Property Value

Type	Description
MeasureUnit	Distance measurement units.

Remarks

You can use the following values:

• Centimeter
• Foot
• Furlong
• Inch

• Mile
• Millimeter
• NauticalMile
• Yard

To apply the measurement unit to the ruler, specify the unit before you create the ruler. The following code creates a ruler that measures the distance in miles:

C#

mapControl1.Measurements.DistanceUnits = MeasureUnit.Mile;
MapRuler ruler = mapControl1.Measurements.CreateRuler(RulerType.Distance, new List<CoordPoint>() {
                                                                                  new GeoPoint(0, 0),
                                                                                  new GeoPoint(10, 0),
                                                                                  new GeoPoint(10, 10)});

VB.NET

mapControl1.Measurements.DistanceUnits = MeasureUnit.Mile
Dim ruler As MapRuler = mapControl1.Measurements.CreateRuler(RulerType.Distance, 
                                                              New List(Of CoordPoint)() From {
                                                                            New GeoPoint(0, 0),
                                                                            New GeoPoint(10, 0),
                                                                            New GeoPoint(10, 10)})
