GdPicture14 Namespace / GdPicturePDF Class / AddLinkAnnotation Method / AddLinkAnnotation(Single,Single,Single,Single,Boolean,Byte,Byte,Byte) Method
The horizontal (X) coordinate of the closest point to the currently defined origin, where the annotation's bounding box is to be located. The value is expressed in the current units specified by the SetMeasurementUnit method and it is related to the current page. For further assistance, please see the Remarks section below.
The vertical (Y) coordinate of the closest point to the currently defined origin, where the annotation's bounding box is to be located. The value is expressed in the current units specified by the SetMeasurementUnit method and it is related to the current page. For further assistance, please see the Remarks section below.
The width of the annotation's bounding box, expressed in the current units specified by the SetMeasurementUnit method.
The height of the annotation's bounding box, expressed in the current units specified by the SetMeasurementUnit method.
Set this parameter to true, if you want to display borders around the annotation's bounding box, otherwise set it to false. These borders are inscribed within the annotation's bounding box and they are drawn with the required color.
The amount of red color to be used for the resulting color when displaying the link borders, if the Borders parameter is set to true. Use the value between 0 and 255.
The amount of green color to be used for the resulting color when displaying the link borders, if the Borders parameter is set to true. Use the value between 0 and 255.
The amount of blue color to be used for the resulting color when displaying the link borders, if the Borders parameter is set to true. Use the value between 0 and 255.
Example





In This Topic
AddLinkAnnotation(Single,Single,Single,Single,Boolean,Byte,Byte,Byte) Method
In This Topic
Adds a link annotation object on the currently selected page of the loaded PDF document. The subtype attribute of this annotation is "Link". This annotation represents an "action ready" link (hypertext link), in other words you can associate an action with this annotation object according to your preference.

This method uses the RGB color space for specifying the required color of the annotation object, here it is the color of the annotation's borders.

You can subsequently assign an action to the created link using the GdPicturePDF.SetAnnotationAction method, as it is explained in the example below. For further assistance, please see the Actions section of the GdPicturePDF class in the Reference Guide.

Parameters

Left
The horizontal (X) coordinate of the closest point to the currently defined origin, where the annotation's bounding box is to be located. The value is expressed in the current units specified by the SetMeasurementUnit method and it is related to the current page. For further assistance, please see the Remarks section below.
Top
The vertical (Y) coordinate of the closest point to the currently defined origin, where the annotation's bounding box is to be located. The value is expressed in the current units specified by the SetMeasurementUnit method and it is related to the current page. For further assistance, please see the Remarks section below.
Width
The width of the annotation's bounding box, expressed in the current units specified by the SetMeasurementUnit method.
Height
The height of the annotation's bounding box, expressed in the current units specified by the SetMeasurementUnit method.
Borders
Set this parameter to true, if you want to display borders around the annotation's bounding box, otherwise set it to false. These borders are inscribed within the annotation's bounding box and they are drawn with the required color.
Red
The amount of red color to be used for the resulting color when displaying the link borders, if the Borders parameter is set to true. Use the value between 0 and 255.
Green
The amount of green color to be used for the resulting color when displaying the link borders, if the Borders parameter is set to true. Use the value between 0 and 255.
Blue
The amount of blue color to be used for the resulting color when displaying the link borders, if the Borders parameter is set to true. Use the value between 0 and 255.

Return Value

The unique annotation index from 0 to GdPicturePDF.GetAnnotationCount-1 related to the currently selected page. The GdPicturePDF.GetStat method can be subsequently used to determine if this method has been successful.
Remarks
This method is only allowed for use with non-encrypted documents.

It is recommend to use the GdPicturePDF.GetStat method to identify the specific reason for the method's failure, if any.

Please always ensure that you have selected the correct page using the GdPicturePDF.SelectPage method before adding a required annotation.

You also need to be aware that the values of coordinates and dimensions are expressed in the current units defined by the GdPicturePDF.SetMeasurementUnit method according to the current coordinate space defined by the GdPicturePDF.SetOrigin method.
