Namespace: Microsoft.VisualBasic.PowerPacks
Assembly: Microsoft.VisualBasic.PowerPacks.Vs (in Microsoft.VisualBasic.PowerPacks.Vs.dll)
Syntax
'Declaration
<BrowsableAttribute(False)> _
Public Overridable Property Bounds As Rectangle
[BrowsableAttribute(false)]
public virtual Rectangle Bounds { get; set; }
[BrowsableAttribute(false)]
public:
virtual property Rectangle Bounds {

function get Bounds () : Rectangle
function set Bounds (value : Rectangle)
Property Value
Type: System.Drawing.Rectangle
A Rectangle in pixels, relative to the parent control, that represents the size and location of the shape.
Remarks
You can call the SetBounds method to change the Bounds property in a single operation.
Because SimpleShape has no non-client area, the Bounds and ClientRectangle properties are the same.
Examples
The following example shows how to use the SetBounds method to change the Bounds property 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() 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);
}
