| Understanding the CorelDRAW object model : Working with shapes : Determining shape type |
Each Shape object has a read-only Type property, which returns the shape type (for example, rectangle, ellipse, curve, text, or group). The properties and methods that are available to a shape vary with shape type; therefore, it’s a good idea to determine the shape type before applying any properties or methods to that shape.
The following sample VBA code determines whether a shape is text. If the shape is text, the code determines whether it is artistic text or paragraph text. If the shape is artistic text, it is rotated by 10 degrees.
Dim sh As Shape |
Set sh = ActiveShape |
If sh.Type = cdrTextShape Then |
If sh.Text.IsArtisticText = True Then |
sh.Rotate 10 |
End If |
End If |
