Property: Orientation

Controls the orientation of the barcode symbol.

Syntax:

type

{ Defined in the pBarcode2D unit }

TBarcodeOrientation = (boLeftRight, boRightLeft, boTopBottom, boBottomTop);

property Orientation: TBarcodeOrientation;

Description:

Specifies the direction of the barcode symbol. The barcode symbol and its quiet zones (if they are represented, please read the ShowQuietZone property about whether or not the quiet zones will be represented) will be rotated based on the property value. You can use the LeadingQuietZone, TrailingQuietZone, TopQuietZone, and BottomQuietZone properties to specify the size of these quiet zones in modules.

For the 2D component TBarcode2D_CCA, TBarcode2D_CCB, or TBarcode2D_CCC, if its Linear property is set, the 2D symbol and the linear symbol are assembled to generate an EAN.UCC composite barcode symbol, and they will be rotated as an entirety.

This property can be one of these values (defined in the pBarcode2D unit):

• boLeftRight: Left to right horizontal direction (rotates the barcode symbol 0 degrees counter-clockwise). See diagram (the SpaceColor property value is set to clSilver in order to accentuate the quiet zones):

  

• boRightLeft: Right to left horizontal direction (rotates the barcode symbol 180 degrees counter-clockwise). See diagram (the SpaceColor property value is set to clSilver in order to accentuate the quiet zones):

  

• boTopBottom: Top to bottom vertical direction (rotates the barcode symbol 270 degrees counter-clockwise). See diagram (the SpaceColor property value is set to clSilver in order to accentuate the quiet zones):

  

• boBottomTop: Bottom to top vertical direction (rotates the barcode symbol 90 degrees counter-clockwise). See diagram (the SpaceColor property value is set to clSilver in order to accentuate the quiet zones):
