Distance from the top of the page to the first node of an object, measured in pixels.
The coordinates of the object's following nodes, or E_ABORT if no more nodes are left. If values are out of range on writing to the attribute, the function will exit and report the error E_INVALIDARG. If there is no active object, they will exit and report a return value of E_HANDLE.
