ShapeRange.GetPosition method

Returns the x y position of the shape range

Syntax:

Sub GetPosition(ByRef PositionX As Double, ByRef PositionY As Double)

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description
PositionX	Double	Specifies, in document units, the horizontal position of the shape range
PositionY	Double	Specifies, in document units, the vertical position of the shape range

Remarks:

The GetPosition method retrieves the horizontal and vertical positions of all the shapes in a shape range, treating the range as a single object.

The position of the shape range is set relative to the reference point specified by the Document.ReferencePoint property.

Examples:

The following VBA example creates an ellipse with the dimensions of the active selection range.

Sub Test()
  Dim x As Double, y As Double
  ActiveDocument.ReferencePoint = cdrCenter
  ActiveSelectionRange.GetPosition x, y
  ActiveLayer.CreateEllipse2 x, y, 0.05
End Sub
