Gets a handle to an object representing the components bounding box position 
- HANDLE Handle
The position or component to read from

The difference between scale and size only applies to objects with child objects, such as groups or compiled components.

Scale and size of the box


Examples

Calling in a calculation

  • Declare a variable 'result' of type HANDLE
  • Add to a calculation icon:
    result = ::Panel.Position.GetBox(handle)
