Description

Determine the horizontal (CurrentX) and vertical (CurrentY) coordinates for the next printing or drawing method1XB6QBF.  Not available at design time.

Usage

{ [form.][picturebox.]|Printer.}CurrentX[ = x ]

{ [form.][picturebox.]|Printer.}CurrentY[ = y ]

Remarks

Coordinates are measured from the upper-left corner of an object.  CurrentX is 0 at an object's left edge and CurrentY is 0 at its top edge.  Coordinates are expressed in twips2SWJ8D3, or the current scale defined by the ScaleHeight, ScaleWidth3J8U7ZN, ScaleLeft, ScaleTop138Z3ME, and ScaleMode.5SNY0BP properties.

When you use the following graphics methods, the CurrentX and CurrentY settings are changed as indicated:
