GridLength Struct

Definition

Namespace:

System.Windows

Assembly:

PresentationFramework.dll

Represents the length of elements that explicitly support Star unit types.

public value class GridLength : IEquatable<System::Windows::GridLength>

[System.ComponentModel.TypeConverter(typeof(System.Windows.GridLengthConverter))]
public struct GridLength : IEquatable<System.Windows.GridLength>

[<System.ComponentModel.TypeConverter(typeof(System.Windows.GridLengthConverter))>]
type GridLength = struct

Public Structure GridLength
Implements IEquatable(Of GridLength)

Inheritance

Object

ValueType

GridLength

Attributes

TypeConverterAttribute

Implements

IEquatable<GridLength>

Remarks

Elements such as ColumnDefinition and RowDefinition use this type to describe width and height in order to support variable distribution of available space.

XAML Attribute Usage

<object property="doubleLength"/>  

-or-

<object property="autoValue"/>  

XAML Values

doubleLength
The element's length, described as either a Double value that specifies a device-independent units (1/96th inch per unit) measure, or as a qualifiedDouble (see below).

autoValue
The element's length, described by either the value Auto or *. See GridUnitType for more information on the values Auto and *.

qualifiedDouble
A double value as described above for any of the measures, followed by one of the following unit declaration strings: px, in, cm, pt.

px (default) is device-independent units (1/96th inch per unit)

in is inches; 1in==96px

cm is centimeters; 1cm==(96/2.54) px

pt is points; 1pt==(96/72) px

Constructors

GridLength(Double)	Initializes a new instance of the GridLength structure using the specified absolute value in pixels.
GridLength(Double, GridUnitType)	Initializes a new instance of the GridLength structure and specifies what kind of value it holds.

Properties

Auto	Gets an instance of GridLength that holds a value whose size is determined by the size properties of the content object.
GridUnitType	Gets the associated GridUnitType for the GridLength.
IsAbsolute	Gets a value that indicates whether the GridLength holds a value that is expressed in pixels.
IsAuto	Gets a value that indicates whether the GridLength holds a value whose size is determined by the size properties of the content object.
IsStar	Gets a value that indicates whether the GridLength holds a value that is expressed as a weighted proportion of available space.
Value	Gets a Double that represents the value of the GridLength.

Methods

Equals(GridLength)	Determines whether the specified GridLength is equal to the current GridLength.
Equals(Object)	Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current GridLength instance.
GetHashCode()	Gets a hash code for the GridLength.
ToString()	Returns a String representation of the GridLength.

Operators

Equality(GridLength, GridLength)	Compares two GridLength structures for equality.
Inequality(GridLength, GridLength)	Compares two GridLength structures to determine if they are not equal.
