Shape.SetSize method

Stretches a shape to fit a specific width and height

Syntax:

Sub SetSize(Optional ByVal Width As Double = 0, Optional ByVal Height As Double = 0)

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description
Width	Double	Specifies, in document units, the width of the shape.
Height	Double	Specifies, in document units, the height of the shape.

Remarks:

The SetSize method stretches a shape to fit a specified width and height.

The shape is stretched relative to the reference point specified by the Document.ReferencePoint property. If either parameter is omitted, the other parameter is calculated based on the other dimension to maintain proportions. You cannot omit both parameters, however.

See also the Shape.SetBoundingBox method, as well as the Shape.SizeWidth and Shape.SizeHeight properties.

Examples:

The following VBA example resizes all shapes on the active page.

Sub Test()
  Dim s As Shape
  ActiveDocument.ReferencePoint = cdrBottomLeft
  For Each s In ActivePage.Shapes
    s.SetSize 1, 1
  Next s
End Sub
