Map Method (Axis)

Finds the numeric location of a value on this axis, relative to given start and end numeric values.

Syntax

Visual Basic

'Declaration
 
Public Overridable Function Map( _
   ByVal value As Object, _
   ByVal mapMinimum As Double, _
   ByVal mapMaximum As Double _
) As Double

C#

public virtual double Map( 
   object value,
   double mapMinimum,
   double mapMaximum
)

Parameters

value

The value to find on this axis.

mapMinimum

The numeric minimum relative to which the value will be mapped.

mapMaximum

The numeric maximum relative to which the value will be mapped.

Return Value

The numeric location of a value on this axis, relative to mapMinimum and mapMaximum.

Remarks

The mapMinimum and mapMaximum parameters are typically pixel or degree values. For example, when mapping on a horizontal linear gauge, mapMinimum would be the leftmost pixel X-coordinate on the axis, whereas mapMaximum would be the rightmost pixel X-coordinate. Or, on a radial gauge, mapMinimum would be the start angle of the gauge, whereas mapMaximum would be the end angle of the same gauge.
