The Scale method defines the coordinate system for a Report object.
Syntax
object.Scale[(x1, y1) – (x2, y2)]
You can use this method only in an event procedure or a macro specified by the OnPrint or OnFormat event property for a report section, or the OnPage event property for a report.
The Scale method has the following arguments.
| Argument | Description |
|---|---|
| object | The Report object to which the coordinate system is applied. |
| x1, y1 | Single values for the horizontal and vertical coordinates that define the position of the upper-left corner of the object. |
| x2, y2 | Single values for the horizontal and vertical coordinates that define the position of the lower-right corner of the object. |
Remarks
You can use the Scale method to reset the coordinate system to any scale you choose. Using the Scale method with no arguments resets the coordinate system to twips. The Scale method affects the coordinate system for the Print method and the report graphics methods, which include the Circle, Line, and PSet methods.
