Namespace : DevExpress.XtraRichEdit.API.Native
Assembly : DevExpress.RichEdit.v25.2.Core.dll
NuGet Package : DevExpress.RichEdit.Core
float ScaleX { get; set; }
Property ScaleX As Single
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| Single |
The scale factor to apply to a shape. Default is 1 (the shape is not scaled).
|
Use the ScaleX property to scale a shape horizontally relative to its original size (OriginalSize). Values between 0 and 1 decrease the shape width, and values greater than 1 increase the width.
If you assign a negative number to the ScaleX property, its absolute value is used.
The following code rotates and resizes pictures in the document.
document.LoadDocument("FirstLook.docx", DevExpress.XtraRichEdit.DocumentFormat.Docx);
foreach (Shape s in document.Shapes)
{
// Rotate and resize pictures.
if (s.Type == ShapeType.Picture)
{
s.ScaleX = 0.8f;
s.ScaleY = 0.8f;
s.RotationAngle = 45;
}
}
document.LoadDocument("FirstLook.docx", DevExpress.XtraRichEdit.DocumentFormat.Docx)
For Each s As Shape In document.Shapes
' Rotate and resize pictures.
If s.Type = ShapeType.Picture Then
s.ScaleX = 0.8F
s.ScaleY = 0.8F
s.RotationAngle = 45
End If
Next s
