<span title="Search for suggestions" class="">I had ignored it because of the documentation. Not sure if there's a place to file documentation issues, but FCArticulation::CalcMetricPos should be marked as Lua-supported. Metric position also made me think musical
position within the measure rather than graphical position, despite the FCPoint* argument. A more clear doc text could maybe be something like:</span></div>

<div style="background-color:#FFFFFF">CalcMetricPos() is the method which exists for both FCArticulation and FCExpression.<br>
In FCSmartShape it's similar: CalcLeft/RightCellMetricPos for measure-attached, CalcLeft/RightEntryMetricPos for note-attached smart shapes.<br>

<div>Hey all,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Is there a good way to get an articulation's position relative to the page? I see FCArticulation::GetVerticalPos but this appears to be an offset relative to different anchors based on the articulation definition's AutoPosSide.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Same question for FCExpression which has a different alignment scheme but similarly only gives offsets. And I can't seem to find any positioning info about smart shapes.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>For context, I'm writing a Lua script to draw a bounding box that encompasses all the elements in a region. I've got it working with notes and rests using FCEntryMetrics and FCCellMetrics but can't seem to find a convenient way to get the articulation
and expression placement in the same page-relative coordinates.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Any suggestions?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thanks!</div>
<div>- Mike</div>
