areaBoundarySnap

layoutDP areaBoundarySnap cyclic { "None" | "Lower Left" | "All Points" }

Description

Controls the snapping of area boundary when the Generate All From Source, Adjust Boundary, or Stretch command is run.

• None prevents the snapping of area boundary.
• Lower Left creates the area boundary of custom size and snaps the lower-left point of the bounding box to the grid.
• All Points snaps all the points of the area boundary bounding box to the grid. This means the bounding box can be larger than expected if the default least common multiple snapping is applied. By default, the area boundary snaps to all points.

The default is All Points.
