Name Property

Summary

Gets or sets the optional zone name.

Syntax

Objective-C

C++/CLI

Java

Python

public string Name { get; set; }

@property (nonatomic, copy, nullable) NSString *name;

public String getName() 
public void setName(String value)

public: 
property String^ Name { 
   String^ get(); 
   void set (    String^ ); 
}

Name # get and set (OcrZone)

Property Value

A String value that specifies the optional zone name.

Remarks

The name is a user-defined value and is not used by the OCR engine. Calling IOcrPage.AutoZone will always fill the page with zones whose Name is set to null (Nothing in VB).
