Property OffsetDistance

OffsetDistance

Gets or sets the distance (in points i.e. 1/72 inches) that text should be moved away from its features.

Declaration
public double OffsetDistance { get; set; }
Property Value
Type Description
System.Double

The distance (in points i.e. 1/72 inches) that text should be moved away from its features.

Remarks

The distance is measured from the point symbol radius or line feature symbology edge. The distance is measured on the screen (i.e. not in the map) in points, comparable to the text font size. This can be a negative value, to pull the label closer to the feature if, for example, the average size for a point symbol is overly conservative for the actual graphic shown.

If no value is set, then 1 point is assumed.
