Are there anyone know how to move all element (text, line,) of a PageLayout (in GraphicsContainer) to left (or right, up...) 5 cm using C# ?

Thank you very much !

ArcObjects documentation is pretty good for this purpose, will explain everything in details. Loop trough the elements in container GraphicContaineer.Next() an use ITransform2D interface on each element, than use .Move(). – Tomek Dec 20 '12 at 10:21
@taibc, This link gives an example of the ITransform2D.Move method how all elments may be moved, edndoc.esri.com/arcobjects/9.2/NET/… – artwork21 Dec 20 '12 at 12:23

As noted in the comments ITransform2D.Move on the elements is the way to go.

Remember that the IPageLayout.Page.Units can be different from centimeters though. The layout elements transformation methods take arguments in page units. You can use the UnitConverter class to convert between units in a generic way.
