Refer to Using Rulers in Annotation Objects |
Remarks
(Document/Medical only) Sets the unit of measurement for a ruler.
The following annotation objects utilize one or more rulers as part of the annotation:
To determine the unit of measure for each ruler, check the AnnRulerUnit property and the AnnSmartUnit property. The default unit of measure for ruler, polyruler, and crossproduct objects is smart English. With the smart units, the unit changes with the length. For example, if the length is 11 inches (assuming the default precision of 2 is being used), "11.00 in" displays whereas if the length is 15 inches, "1 ft 3.00 in" displays. Use the AnnSetUnit method to set the unit of measurement and its precision for the ruler. The precision indicates how many digits to display to the right of the decimal point in the length. Use the AnnGetUnit method to get the unit of measurement and its precision for the ruler. The AnnGetDistance2 method updates the following properties with information about the ruler(s) contained in the specified object:
Refer to the AnnAutomation property.
