ArcGIS.Core.Geometry Namespace / GeometryEngine Class / Move Method / Move(Geometry,Double,Double) Method
The geometry to move.
Units along the X-axis to move the geometry.
Units along the Y-axis to move the geometry.
Example Version

Move(Geometry,Double,Double) Method
Moves a geometry.
Syntax

Parameters

geometry
The geometry to move.
dx
Units along the X-axis to move the geometry.
dy
Units along the Y-axis to move the geometry.

Return Value

The moved geometry.
Exceptions
ExceptionDescription
Geometry is null or empty.
The method is not implemented for GeometryBag.
Remarks
Moves the Geometry along the X-axis and the Y-axis. Only changes the position of the Geometry without altering any of the other characteristics. Move is a spatial offset.

GeometryEngine Move

Example
Move a MapPoint
MapPoint pt = MapPointBuilderEx.CreateMapPoint(1.0, 3.0);
MapPoint ptResult = GeometryEngine.Instance.Move(pt, -3.5, 2.5) as MapPoint;
// ptResult is (-2.5, 5.5)
Move a Polyline
List<MapPoint> pts = new List<MapPoint>();
pts.Add(MapPointBuilderEx.CreateMapPoint(1.0, 1.0, 3.0));
pts.Add(MapPointBuilderEx.CreateMapPoint(3.0, 3.0, 3.0));
pts.Add(MapPointBuilderEx.CreateMapPoint(3, 2, 3.0));
pts.Add(MapPointBuilderEx.CreateMapPoint(4.0, 2.0, 3.0));

Polyline polyline = PolylineBuilderEx.CreatePolyline(pts);

Geometry geometry = GeometryEngine.Instance.Move(polyline, 3, 2);
Polyline polylineResult = geometry as Polyline;
// polylineResult.Points[0] = 4.0, 3.0, 3.0
// polylineResult.Points[1] = 6.0, 5.0, 3.0
// polylineResult.Points[2] = 6.0, 4.0, 3.0
// polylineResult.Points[3] = 7.0, 4.0, 3.0
