'Declaration
Public Sub SetBounds ( _
x As Integer, _
y As Integer, _
width As Integer, _
height As Integer _
)
'Usage
Dim instance As SimpleShape
Dim x As Integer
Dim y As Integer
Dim width As Integer
Dim height As Integer
instance.SetBounds(x, y, width, height)
public void SetBounds(
int x,
int y,
int width,
int height
)
public:
void SetBounds(
int x,
int y,
int width,
int height
)
public function SetBounds(
x : int,
y : int,
width : int,
height : int
)
Parameters
x
Type: System.Int32The new Left property value of the shape.
y
Type: System.Int32The new Top property value of the shape.
width
Type: System.Int32The new Width property value of the shape.
height
Type: System.Int32The new Height property value of the shape.
Remarks
You can use the SetBounds method to change a shape's size and location in a single statement.
Examples
The following example shows how to use the SetBounds method to change the size and location of a shape. Specifically, the shape is moved to the upper-left corner of the form and changed to a square. This example requires that you have a RectangleShape control named RectangleShape1 on a form.
Private Sub RectangleShape1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, _
ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles RectangleShape1.Click
' Change the Bounds property.
RectangleShape1.SetBounds(0, 0, 100, 100)
End Sub
private void rectangleShape1_Click(System.Object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
// Change the Bounds property.
rectangleShape1.SetBounds(0, 0, 100, 100);
}
