Shape.RemoveFromContainer method

Removes this shape from a PowerClip object

Syntax:

Sub RemoveFromContainer(Optional ByVal Level As Long = 0)

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description
Level	Long	Specifies the lowest level from which to remove the shape. The shape is removed from this level and all levels above it.

Remarks:

The RemoveFromContainer method removes a shape from its PowerClip container.

If there are several nested PowerClip objects, you can remove a shape from several containers at a time by specifying the Level parameter value.

Examples:

The following VBA example removes all ellipses from all PowerClip objects on the current page.

Sub Test()
  Dim s As Shape, ss As Shape
  Dim p As PowerClip
  On Error Resume Next
  For Each s In ActivePage.Shapes
    Set p = Nothing
    Set p = s.PowerClip
    If Not p Is Nothing Then
      For Each ss In p.Shapes
        If ss.Type = cdrEllipseShape Then
          ActiveDocument.ClearSelection
          ss.RemoveFromContainer
        End If
      Next ss
    End If
  Next s
End Sub
