MarginClass

Definition

Namespace: DOM.Styles
Assembly: DOM.dll

Represents the margin (inset) values around an element, page or container.

Remarks

groups four directional values that describe the spacing between the element's content edge and its outer boundary. Values may be expressed in absolute units (points, EMU, mm, etc.) or as relative percentages when supported by the consumer. Layout and rendering code should read these values when computing content box sizes and positioning. Margin DocumentUnit Margins are used for page setup (page margins), for graphics (spacing around images/shapes), and for text wrapping (distance from text).

Examples

csharp

1// 1. Uniform 1-inch margins (page setup)

2var margin = new Margin(1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0, Units.inch);

csharp

1// 2. Asymmetric margins (letter page — extra binding gutter on the left)

2var margin = new Margin(1.0, 1.25, 1.0, 1.0, Units.inch);

csharp

1// 3. Custom unit (points) for a shape's surrounding space

2var margin = new Margin(6, 6, 6, 6, Units.pt);

csharp

1// 4. Default (empty) margins then set individual sides

2var margin = new Margin();

3margin.Top = new DocumentUnit(0.5, Units.inch);

4margin.Bottom = new DocumentUnit(0.5, Units.inch);

csharp

1// 5. Assign to PageSetup

2doc.PageSettings = new PageSetup

4 PageSize = new PageSize(PaperSize.Letter),

5 Margin = new Margin(1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0, Units.inch)

6};

csharp

1// 6. Apply to a graphic's transform

2var t = new Transform

4 Margin = new Margin(4, 4, 4, 4, Units.pt)

5};
