#bottomObject

Relative bottom y-coordinate of the bounding box (Always 0)

Example, position some text 3 pts from the bottom of the containing box:

draw_text('hello', :at => [0, (bounds.bottom + 3)])

# File 'lib/prawn/document/bounding_box.rb', line 349

def bottom
  0
end

#bottom_leftObject

Relative bottom-left point of the bounding box

Example, draw a line along the left hand side of the page:

stroke do
  line(bounds.bottom_left, bounds.top_left)
end

389
# File 'lib/prawn/document/bounding_box.rb', line 387

def bottom_right
  [right, bottom]
end

#heightObject Also known as: update_height

Height of the bounding box. If the box is ‘stretchy’ (unspecified height attribute), height is calculated as the distance from the top of the box to the current drawing position.

    (absolute_top - @document.y),
    @stretched_height.to_f
  ].max
end

#leftObject

Relative left x-coordinate of the bounding box. (Always 0)

Example, position some text 3 pts from the left of the containing box:

draw_text('hello', :at => [(bounds.left + 3), 0])

end

#move_past_bottomObject

Moves to the top of the next page of the document, starting a new page if necessary.

  end
end

#rightObject

Relative right x-coordinate of the bounding box. (Equal to the box width)

Example, position some text 3 pts from the right of the containing box:

draw_text('hello', :at => [(bounds.right - 3), 0])


329

# File 'lib/prawn/document/bounding_box.rb', line 329

def right
  @width
end

#stretchy?Boolean

Returns:

  • (Boolean)

stroke do
  line(bounds.top_left, bounds.bottom_right)
end
