[NOT for .NET, see nFree]

A flag for indicating that VPE shall compute a coordinate dynamically. For text and images it can be used for the right coordinate (width) as well as the bottom coordinate (height). For text it means that the coordinate shall be computed due to the text-length and font size when a text object is inserted. For images the coordinate will be computed based on the resolution and dimensions found in the image file. For Rich Text (RTF) you may only set the bottom coordinate to VFREE, the right coordinate can not be dynamic.

See "Dynamic Positioning" in the Programmer's Manual for details.

Example:

VPE.Write(1, 1, VFREE, VFREE, "Hello World!")

Remarks:

For completeness, we list the value of VFREE here.

You should always use the named constants instead of the values.
