Public Property End As Point

Dim instance As Selection
Dim value As Point
 
instance.End = value
 
value = instance.End

public Point End {get; set;}

public: __property Point get_End();
public: __property void set_End( 
   Point value
);

public:
property Point End {
   Point get();
   void set (    Point value);
}

Property Value

A Point specifying the last character selected. The default value is (-1, -1) (no selection).

Remarks

This property can index into the scrollback buffer, so if Vt.BufferRows is 72, the Point (0, 72) would be used to specify the first column in the first row of the screen buffer.

Example

The following example demonstrates how to print the display.

private string printScreen(bool useSelectedText)
{
	//Select display window to print and return
	vt1.Selection.Start = new Point(vt1.BufferRows, 0);
	vt1.Selection.End = new Point(vt1.BufferRows + vt1.Rows, vt1.Columns);

	//No difference in this case (when the entire display is selected)
	if (useSelectedText)
		vt1.Selection.Print();
	else
		vt1.PrintScreen();

	return vt1.Selection.Text;
}

Visual Basic

Private Function printScreen(ByVal useSelectedText As Boolean) As String
	'Select display window to print and return
	vt1.Selection.Start = New Point(vt1.BufferRows, 0)
	vt1.Selection.End = New Point(vt1.BufferRows + vt1.Rows, vt1.Columns)

	'No difference in this case (when the entire display is selected)
	If useSelectedText Then
		vt1.Selection.Print()
	Else
		vt1.PrintScreen()
	End If

	Return vt1.Selection.Text
End Function
