GrapeCity.Documents.Excel.Drawing.IContainer

IContainer Interface

Represents a floating container in a worksheet drawing layer.

This interface defines the common position and size members for floating objects such as shapes, charts, and pictures. It provides coordinates and dimensions in worksheet units through methods such as Top, Left, Width, and Height, and also provides pixel-based variants for the same measurements.

Objects that implement IContainer are typically obtained from drawing APIs that return related interfaces such as IShape.

Properties

Name Description
Height

Gets or sets the height of the object.

This value is measured in worksheet units. Use HeightInPixel to retrieve the height in pixels.

HeightInPixel

Gets or sets the height (in pixels) of the object.

Use this method to retrieve the pixel-based height of a floating object such as a shape, chart, or picture.

Left

Gets or sets the distance from the left edge of the object to the left edge of column A.

LeftInPixel

Gets or sets the distance (in pixels) from the left edge of the object to the left edge of column A (on a worksheet) or the left edge of the chart area (on a chart).

Top

Gets or sets the distance from the top edge of the object to the top edge of the worksheet.

TopInPixel

Gets or sets the distance (in pixels) from the top edge of the object to the top edge of the worksheet.

Width

Gets or sets the width of the object.

This value is measured in worksheet units. Use WidthInPixel to retrieve the width in pixels.

WidthInPixel

Gets or sets the width (in pixels) of the object.

Use this method to retrieve the pixel-based width of a floating object such as a shape, chart, or picture.
