### Description

Gets or sets, in twips, the frame's current location. If the image, text frame, chart, barcode or drawing is anchored to a paragraph, the location is relative to the paragraph. Otherwise, it is relative to the document. If the frame has a horizontal alignment or if it is inserted inline, this property returns zero. This property cannot be set for images, text frames, charts, barcodes or drawings which are inserted inline.

### Syntax

```csharp
public Point Location { get; set; }
```

```vbnet
Public Property Location As Point
```

### Examples

The following example adds a callout frame and works with it through the common frame API by using `FrameBase.Location`.

```csharp
TextFrame callout = new(new System.Drawing.Size(3000, 1200)) { Name = "Callout" };
textControl.TextFrames.Add(callout, TextFrameInsertionMode.DisplaceText);
FrameBase frameBase = callout;

frameBase.Location = new System.Drawing.Point(20, 20);
Console.WriteLine($"Location used by Frame Base: {frameBase.Location}");
```

```vbnet
Dim callout As New TextFrame(New System.Drawing.Size(3000, 1200)) With { .Name = "Callout" }
textControl.TextFrames.Add(callout, TextFrameInsertionMode.DisplaceText)
Dim frameBase As FrameBase = callout

frameBase.Location = New System.Drawing.Point(20, 20)
Console.WriteLine($"Location used by Frame Base: {frameBase.Location}")
```
