Description

The WR GET PICTURE IN PAGE INFO command returns information about the picture whose number was passed in pictureNumber, as it currently appears in the 4D Write area referenced by area.

Warning: this command should not be used with pictures that are part of the text flow.

page allows you to know in which page the picture is displayed.

If page is greater than -1, the picture is displayed in the page whose number was returned. This value takes into account the page numbering as it is currently defined.
If page equals -11, the picture is visible on the right-hand pages if the even- and odd-numbered headers are different; otherwise, it is visible on every page.
If page equals -12, the picture is visible on the left-hand pages if the even- and odd-numbered headers are different.

behind:

If behind is equal to 0, the picture is in front of the text.
If behind is equal to 1, the picture is behind the text.

firstPage: This parameter is kept only for compatibility reasons and should not be used starting with version 2004.

horizPos and vertPos return the coordinates of the picture's upper left corner in relation to the upper left corner of the page. Those values are expressed in the current default units for the document.

width and height return the current dimensions of the picture.

origWidth and origHeight return the original dimensions of the picture before any modification. If the picture was not resized, origWidth and origHeight return the same values as width and

height. Those values are expressed in the current default units for the document.

Note: It may be convenient to change the current unit to pixels for some computations.
