Size/location data is defined as a pair of x & y co-ordinates. When specifying location information these values determine the upper left corner of the object's location. When specifying size information these values determine the width and height of the object. The Properties view provides a pair of numeric editors to accept the individual x & y values.
Values for the x & y co-ordinates must be in the range from -1000 to 1000.
NOTE It is possible to enter legal values within that range which will result in your object being displayed 'offscreen'.
The object will display a bounding rectangle with squares at its corners.
The properties of the selected object will be displayed.
The x & y subfields will be displayed, as shown in Figure 1.
