Description

Gets or sets the distances, in twips, between the frame and the document's text. The property's value is an array of four variables specifying the distances in the following order: left, top, right and bottom. If a value is set to -1, it is not changed.

Syntax

public int[] TextDistances { get; set; }

Public Property TextDistances As Integer()

Examples

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

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

frameBase.TextDistances = new int[] { 720 };
if (frameBase.TextDistances != null)
{
    Console.WriteLine("Frame Base: Text Distances is available.");
}

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.TextDistances = New Integer() { 720 }
If frameBase.TextDistances IsNot Nothing Then
    Console.WriteLine("Frame Base: Text Distances is available.")
End If
