Relative Property (NPort)

In This Topic

Gets or sets whether the port coordinates are expressed in absolute or relative values. By default set to false, meaning that port coordinates are in absolute shape coordinates.

Syntax

public System.bool Relative {get; set;}

Remarks

It is often required to make ports the coordinates of which are expressed relatively to the shape Width and Height. In such cases you may set the Relative property to true.

For example: if Relative is set to false, to define a port in the center of the shape you can set the "Width*0.5" and "Height*0.5" expressions to the X and Y coordindates of the port. This syntax requires one expressions per port coordinate.

if Relative is set to true, to define a port in the center of the shape you can set the X property to 0.5 and the Y property to 0.5. This syntax does not require expressions.
