GdPicture.NET.14~GdPicture14.AnnotationManager~AddRubberStampAnnot - AddRubberStampAnnot Method (AnnotationManager) -

AddRubberStampAnnot Method (AnnotationManager)

In This Topic

Adds a new GdPicture/XMP rubber stamp annotation on the selected page of the document currently handled by this AnnotationManager object according to the parameters you have specified. This annotation shows a stamp mark of the specified stamp within the defined rectangle area.

The type of the newly added annotation object is GdPictureAnnotationType.AnnotationTypeRubberStamp. You can change the annotation properties directly using the GdPicture14.Annotations.AnnotationRubberStamp class right after the successful creation of the annotation object.

Be aware that annotations are always treated relative to the currently selected page.

public function AddRubberStampAnnot( 
   BorderColor : Color,
   Left : float,
   Top : float,
   Width : float,
   Height : float,
   Text : String
) : AnnotationRubberStamp;

public: AnnotationRubberStamp* AddRubberStampAnnot( 
   Color BorderColor,
   float Left,
   float Top,
   float Width,
   float Height,
   string* Text
)

public:
AnnotationRubberStamp^ AddRubberStampAnnot( 
   Color BorderColor,
   float Left,
   float Top,
   float Width,
   float Height,
   String^ Text
)

Parameters

BorderColor: A color object that defines the required border color of the newly added rubber stamp annotation.
Left: The horizontal (X) coordinate of the top left point, in inches, where the annotation bounding box is to be located.
Top: The vertical (Y) coordinate of the top left point, in inches, where the annotation bounding box is to be located.
Width: The width of the annotation bounding box, in inches.
Height: The height of the annotation bounding box, in inches.
Text: The content of the newly added rubber stamp, that means the text to be displayed in the annotation bounding box.

Return Value

A GdPicture/XMP AnnotationRubberStamp object. The newly added GdPicture/XMP rubber stamp annotation.

Remarks

Please ensure that you have selected the proper page before starting any annotation related action with the handled document. Annotations are always treated relative to the currently selected page.

You can regularly apply the AnnotationManager.GetStat method to determine if this method has been successful.
