int

% of Page

Specifies the unit for the specified layers.
Option list

  • page:0% of Page
    This unit is useful for maintaining the same layer size relative to the page size. When this unit is selected, the left, top, height, and width of the layer are in percentage of the graph page height and width.
  • inch:1 inch
    When this unit is selected, the left, top, height, and width of the layer are measured in inch.
  • cm:2 cm
    When this unit is selected, the left, top, height, and width of the layer are measured in cm.
  • mm:3 mm
    When this unit is selected, the left, top, height, and width of the layer are measured in mm.
  • pixel:4 pixel
    When this unit is selected, the left, top, height, and width of the layer are measured in pixel.
  • point:5 point
    When this unit is selected, the left, top, height, and width of the layer are measured in point.
