Logical Point

Defines a point in 2-dimensional space using logical (unit-aware) values for each axis.

Remarks

Logical Point allows you to specify the X and Y coordinates of a point using unit-aware string values. This is useful in scenarios where positions must be defined in logical (physical) units such as inches, points, centimeters, or millimeters, rather than device-dependent units like pixels.

Each axis can be configured independently, or you can use shorthand notation to set both axes to the same value.

Usage

• To set both X and Y to the same value: 8pt
• To set X and Y independently: 1in, 2in

You may enter values directly as a comma-separated string, or expand the property in the UI to edit each axis separately.

Supported Unit Types

The following unit types are supported when specifying values for Logical Point:

• in: Inches
• pt: Points (1/72 of an inch)
• cm: Centimeters
• mm: Millimeters

Note: The px (pixels) and % (percent) units are not supported in Logical Point. Attempting to use these units will result in a validation error.

Examples

• 8pt: Sets both X and Y to 8 points.
• 1in, 2in: Sets X to 1 inch and Y to 2 inches.

When configuring a Logical Point, ensure that the units are appropriate for the logical context in which the point will be used.

Properties

Name	Type		Description
X	String	►	The X axis value, specified as a unit-aware string. ConverterSimple Value Converter Sets the X coordinate of the point. Enter a value with a supported unit (such as 1in, 8pt, or 10mm). If both X and Y are set to the same value, you may enter a single value for both. Supported units:in, pt, cm, mm
Y	String	►	The Y axis value, specified as a unit-aware string. ConverterSimple Value Converter Sets the Y coordinate of the point. Enter a value with a supported unit (such as 2in, 8pt, or 10mm). If both X and Y are set to the same value, you may enter a single value for both. Supported units:in, pt, cm, mm
