How to use cm and pt when adding shapes

[majeed_s]

Is there a way to use `cm` and `pt` units when defining the left/top/height/width when adding a shape to a slide?

I believe spire.presentation is using `Points`? I guess I can create a converter but I need to understand what spire.presentation is using.

Hi,

Thanks for your inquiry.
In our products, we use “Point” as the default unit. When you add a shape to a slide, The arguments unit of the constructor is “Point”. In addition, we have a tool named PdfUnitConvertor, it can convert many units that we may need, you do not need to create an extra unit converter.

Code: Select all

            PdfUnitConvertor convertor = new PdfUnitConvertor();
            convertor.ConvertUnits(10f, PdfGraphicsUnit.Centimeter, PdfGraphicsUnit.Point);
