#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 360

def bottom
  0
end

#bottom_leftObject

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

stroke do

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.

    @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:
