Property Value

Type: System.Int32
An Int32 that represents the distance, in pixels, between the top edge of the control and the top edge of its container's client area.

Remarks

The Top property value is equivalent to the y parameter of the Location property value of the shape.

Changes made to the Height and Top property values cause the Bottom property value of the shape to change.

You can use the Location property to change both the Left and the Top properties to change a shape's location in a single statement.

Examples

The following example shows how to use the Left and Top properties to change the location of a shape. This example requires that you have a RectangleShape control named RectangleShape1 on a form.

Private Sub RectangleShape1_Click_1() Handles RectangleShape1.Click
    ' Set the left edge.
    RectangleShape1.Left = 10
    ' Set the top edge.
    RectangleShape1.Top = 10
End Sub
private void rectangleShape1_Click_1(System.Object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
    // Set the left edge.
    rectangleShape1.Left = 10;
    // Set the top edge.
    rectangleShape1.Top = 10;
}
