LPtoGP Method

Converts the coordinate of the point from the local coordinate system of the shape into the global coordinate system of the parent object (group or page).

Applies to: Shape object

Syntax

object.LPtoGP ( srcPoint )

The LPtoGP method syntax has these parts:

Part Description
object Required. An expression that returns a Shape object.
srcPoint Required. A DPoint type variable. The coordinates of the point.

Remarks

The global coordinate system with respect to the coordinate system of the given shape is the local coordinate system of the parent group in the case when the shape is inside a group. If the shape is not part of a group, the global coordinate system coincides with the global coordinate system.

This method modifies the input argument srcPoint and uses it to return the resulting coordinates. The coordinates are measured in internal units (InternalUnit).
