Width, height, and similar properties for Web server controls are set in units. Units are implemented as objects (the Unit structure), which allows you to specify a value and the measurement unit in various ways.

To set unit-based properties

Assign a reference to the Unit structure to your control.

The following code examples show variations on how to do this.

Visual BasicВ	Copy Code
' Default is pixels. TextBox1.Width = New Unit(100) TextBox1.Width = New Unit(100, UnitType.Pixel) TextBox1.Width = New Unit("100px") ' Centimeters. TextBox1.Width = New Unit("2cm") TextBox1.Width = New Unit(10, UnitType.Percentage) TextBox1.Width = New Unit("10%")

Visual BasicВ

Copy Code

' Default is pixels.
TextBox1.Width = New Unit(100)
TextBox1.Width = New Unit(100, UnitType.Pixel)
TextBox1.Width = New Unit("100px")
' Centimeters.
TextBox1.Width = New Unit("2cm")
TextBox1.Width = New Unit(10, UnitType.Percentage)
TextBox1.Width = New Unit("10%")

C#В	Copy Code
// Default is pixels. TextBox1.Width = new Unit(100); TextBox1.Width = new Unit(100, UnitType.Pixel); TextBox1.Width = new Unit("100px"); // Centimeters TextBox1.Width = new Unit("2cm"); TextBox1.Width = new Unit(10, UnitType.Percentage); TextBox1.Width = new Unit("10%");

C#В

Copy Code

// Default is pixels.
TextBox1.Width = new Unit(100);
TextBox1.Width = new Unit(100, UnitType.Pixel);
TextBox1.Width = new Unit("100px");
// Centimeters
TextBox1.Width = new Unit("2cm");
TextBox1.Width = new Unit(10, UnitType.Percentage);
TextBox1.Width = new Unit("10%");
