You can get the length of ruler using the RulerAnnotationData.Length property:

You can get the unit of measure of ruler using the RulerAnnotationData.UnitOfMeasure property:

Hi Alex,



Thanks for your reply,
Here is my screenshot, https://drive.google.com/open?id=18Qsda ... qt5M1SU6Li.

I actually got it at

Code: Select all

annotationViewer1_AnnotationTransformingFinished

now but it will only appears the pixels value. What I want is the millimeters.
Here is my code.

Code: Select all

foreach (AnnotationView view in annotationViewer1.SelectedAnnotations)
{
    // end the initialization of annotation view
    EndInit(view.Data);

    var size = view.Data.Size.Width;
    var mmSize = size ; //What is the formula here?
    textBox2.Text = mmSize.ToString();
}

Regards,
Mark
