Point::Offset Method (Double, Double)
Assembly: WindowsBase (in WindowsBase.dll)
Parameters
- offsetX
-
Type:
System::Double
The amount to offset the point's
X coordinate.
- offsetY
-
Type:
System::Double
The amount to offset the
point's Y coordinate.
This operation is equivalent to adding a Point to a Vector.
Note that calling the Offset method will only have an effect if you can change the X and Y properties directly. Because Point is a value type, if you reference a Point object by using a property or indexer, you get a copy of the object, not a reference to the object. If you attempt to change X or Y on a property or indexer reference, a compiler error occurs. Similarly, calling Offset on the property or indexer will not change the underlying object. If you want to change the value of a Point that is referenced as a property or indexer, create a new Point, modify its fields, and then assign the Point back to the property or indexer.
