Shape Properties

[Paul Garner]

Hi. I'm a school teacher and am trying to find ways of manipulating
shapes and objects for use in slideshow mode.



I have found a few macros that I can assign to shapes but was wondering
if there was a list anywhere of attributes that can be changed in a
macro and how they are written (such as fill colour, size, rotate,
stretch, draggable corners etc)



I can then have a fiddle. any help would be greatly appreciated!!!



Many thanks.



Paul.

If you start writing a macro, you can see a quick list by typing:

ActivePresentation.Slides(1).Shapes(1).

After you type the last dot, a pop-up window will list all the things
that can come next. Alternatively, type Shape into the VBA editor Help
area.
