Gets or sets the left indent, in twips, at the current input position. If text is selected, the property specifies the left indent of the whole selected text.

Syntax

​public int? LeftIndent { get; set; }
​Public Property LeftIndent() As Nullable(Of Integer)

Examples

The following XAML example binds the LeftIndent property to a text box. The value of the left indent is converted to centimeter.

​?
xmlns:tx="clr-namespace:TXTextControl.WPF;assembly=TXTextControl.WPF"
?
<Window.Resources>
    <tx:MeasureConverter Unit="Centimeter" x:Key="twipsconv" />
</Window.Resources>
?
<TextBox 
    Height="21" 
    Name="textBoxLeftIndent" 
    Text="{Binding ElementName=textControl1,
        Path=InputFormat.LeftIndent,
        Converter={StaticResource twipsconv},
        Mode=TwoWay}"/>
​

Remarks

The property returns null when the text selection contains multiple paragraphs with different left indents.

The WPF.MeasureConverter can be used to convert the property value to another measuring unit.
