EffectBlend.BlendGroup property

Gets the blend group

Syntax:

Property Get BlendGroup() As Shape

Remarks:

The BlendGroup property returns a Shape object that represents a blend group (that is, all intermediate blend steps).

Blend objects in a group should be separated before working with an individual blend object.

Examples:

The following VBA example creates a blend between two circles, separates the blend, and moves the blend steps up and to the right. In this example, the Effect.Separate method returns a ShapeRange object, the first element of which is the same blend group shape.

Sub Test()
  Dim s1 As Shape, s2 As Shape, eff As Effect, s As Shape
  Set s1 = ActiveLayer.CreateEllipse(0, 10, 2, 8)
  Set s2 = s1.Duplicate(5, -7)
  s1.Fill.UniformColor.CMYKAssign 0, 0, 100, 0
  s2.Fill.UniformColor.CMYKAssign 0, 100, 100, 0
  Set eff = s2.CreateBlend(s1)
  Set s = eff.Blend.BlendGroup
  eff.Separate
  s.Move 1, 1
End Sub
