ReferencePoint.SetPointElementReference
Method
Description:
Change the rule for computing the location of the ReferencePoint relative to other elements in the document.
Change the rule for computing the location of the ReferencePoint relative to other elements in the document.
Remarks:
pointElementReference may be null, in which case the ReferencePoint does not follow any other element. When Reference is changed from null to a non-null value, the point moves and rotates to the prescribed location and orientation. Where the coordinate system has some freedom, it will remain as close to the old orientation as possible. When the reference is set to null, the point does not move or rotate.
