A unique region identifier of the specified region. You can obtain this identifier using the GetRegionID method or when creating regions using AddRegion(String,Int32,Int32,Int32,Int32,ForegroundMixMode,Int32) or AddRegionInches(String,Single,Single,Single,Single,ForegroundMixMode,Int32) methods.

GetRegionLeftPixels Method (GdViewer)

In This Topic
Gets the horizontal (X) coordinate of the top left point, in pixels, where the highlighted region's rectangle is located on the actual document (meaning the document pages area). The highlighted region is specified by its unique identifier related to the document currently displayed in the GdViewer control. These regions, if present, determines the currently defined highlighted regions on the displayed document.

You can define this coordinate of the region'rectangle when adding regions using AddRegion(String,Int32,Int32,Int32,Int32,ForegroundMixMode,Int32) or AddRegionInches(String,Single,Single,Single,Single,ForegroundMixMode,Int32) methods or directly using the SetRegionLeftPixels method.

Parameters

RegionID
A unique region identifier of the specified region. You can obtain this identifier using the GetRegionID method or when creating regions using AddRegion(String,Int32,Int32,Int32,Int32,ForegroundMixMode,Int32) or AddRegionInches(String,Single,Single,Single,Single,ForegroundMixMode,Int32) methods.

Return Value

The horizontal coordinate of the top left point, in pixels, of the highlighted region's rectangle, related to the actual document. The GetStat method can be subsequently used to determine if this method has been successful.
Remarks
Be aware that if the required region does not exist, the method will fail.

Please note that the returned value corresponds to the actual document area, it is not related to the GdViewer control area.
