SetPixelOffsets Method (IAgStkGraphicsTextBatchPrimitiveOptionalParameters)
See Also Example

PixelOffsets: An array containing a X and Y pixel offset for each string in the batch. There must be one X pixel offset followed by one Y pixel offset for each string passed to the Text Batch Primitive's Set or SetPartial method.

Description

Defines a collection of pixel offsets, one for each string in the batch.

Syntax

[Visual Basic .NET]
Public Sub SetPixelOffsets( _ ByRef PixelOffsets() As Variant _ )

Parameters

PixelOffsets: An array containing a X and Y pixel offset for each string in the batch. There must be one X pixel offset followed by one Y pixel offset for each string passed to the Text Batch Primitive's Set or SetPartial method.

Remarks

The pixel offset defines a screen-space translation for a string from its position. Positive x values translate to the right and positive y values translate up. This is commonly used when more than one primitive is located at the same position. For example, if a string in a text batch and a point in a point batch have the same position, the string may have a pixel offset applied to it so it doesn't overlap the point.

Per-string pixel offsets override the per-batch pixel offset. Therefore, when per-string pixel offsets are defined with this method, Pixel Offset is ignored.

Example

Shows the format of the PixelOffsets parameter when setting per string pixel offsets.
