Syntax

expression.Vertices

expression A variable that represents a ShapeRange object.

Remarks

The following table shows how the Vertices property associates the values in the array vertArray() with the coordinates of a triangle's vertices.

vertArray element Contains
vertArray(1, 1) The horizontal distance from the first vertex to the left side of the document
vertArray(1, 2) The vertical distance from the first vertex to the top of the document
vertArray(2, 1) The horizontal distance from the second vertex to the left side of the document
vertArray(2, 2) The vertical distance from the second vertex to the top of the document
vertArray(3, 1) The horizontal distance from the third vertex to the left side of the document
vertArray(3, 2) The vertical distance from the third vertex to the top of the document

Example

This example assigns the vertex coordinates for shape one on myDocument to the array variable vertArray() and displays the coordinates for the first vertex.

Visual Basic for Applications
Set myDocument = Worksheets(1) With myDocument.Shapes(1) vertArray = .Vertices x1 = vertArray(1, 1) y1 = vertArray(1, 2) MsgBox "First vertex coordinates: " & x1 & ", " & y1 End With

This example creates a curve that has the same geometric description as shape one on myDocument. Shape one must contain 3n+1 vertices for this example to succeed.

Visual Basic for Applications
Set myDocument = Worksheets(1) With myDocument.Shapes .AddCurve .Item(1).Vertices End With
