WinViewPortControl.setMouseMargin


Usage

[C#]public void setMouseMargin(int mouseMargin, int cornerMargin);
[VB]Public Sub setMouseMargin(mouseMargin As Integer, cornerMargin As Integer)

Description

Sets the margin around the viewport border for mouse drag.

The viewport border can be as thin as 1 pixel, and it is hard to position the mouse over the border to drag it. To make it easier to drag the border, dragging can start if the mouse is within a certain margin from the border.

If both vertical and horizontal zooming is allowed, the viewport corners can be dragged diagonally to resize the viewport in both directions at the same time. To distinguish between dragging the corners and the borders, if the mouse is within a certain margin from the corner when the dragging starts, it is considered to be dragging the corner.

In either case, the mouse cursor will change to let the user know if the border or corner can be dragged.
