The OBJECT Get vertical alignment command returns a value indicating the type of vertical alignment applied to the object designated by the object and * parameters.
If you pass the optional * parameter, this indicates that the object parameter is an object name (a string). If you do not pass this parameter, this indicates that the object is a variable. In this case, you pass a variable reference instead of a string.
Note: If you apply this command to a set of objects, only the alignment value for the last object is returned.
The value returned corresponds to one of the following constants, found in the Object Properties theme:
Constant |
Type |
Value |
Align bottom |
Longint |
4 |
Align center |
Longint |
3 |
Align top |
