The Size can be set by just setting a Size property.

Returns:

Size in UnitMM Values.

Return type:

SizeStructGenericComp[UnitMM]

Example

Can be set by just setting a Size property using int or UnitMM.

shape.size.width = 1000 # 10 mm
shape.size.height = UnitMM(20) # 20 mm

Can also be set using any UnitT object.

shape.size.width = UnitCM(1.2)
shape.size.height = UnitMM(40)

Can also be set using a com.sun.star.awt.Size struct.

shape.size = Size(1000, 2000) # in 1/100mm
