Sets or returns a MsoTriState constant that determines how the embedded objects will be revealed. Read/write.

Syntax

expression.Reveal

expression A variable that represents a FilterEffect object.

Return Value
MsoTriState

Remarks

Setting a value of msoTrue for the Reveal property when the filter effect type is msoAnimFilterEffectTypeWipe will make the shape appear. Setting a value of msoFalse will make the object disappear. In other words, if your filter is set to wipe and Reveal is true, you will get a wipe in effect and when Reveal is false, you will get a wipe out effect.

MsoTriState can be one of these MsoTriState constants.
msoCTrue Doesn't apply to this property.
msoFalse Comments, revisions, and personal information remain in the presentation.
msoTriStateMixed Doesn't apply to this property.
msoTriStateToggle Doesn't apply to this property.
msoTrue Removes comments, revisions, and personal information when saving the presentation.

Example

The following example adds a shape to the first slide of the active presentation and sets a filter effect animation behavior.

Visual Basic for Applications 
Sub ChangeFilterEffect() Dim sldFirst As Slide Dim shpHeart As Shape Dim effNew As Effect Dim bhvEffect As AnimationBehavior Set sldFirst = ActivePresentation.Slides(1) Set shpHeart = sldFirst.Shapes.AddShape(Type:=msoShapeHeart, _ Left:=100, Top:=100, Width:=100, Height:=100) Set effNew = sldFirst.TimeLine.MainSequence.AddEffect _ (Shape:=shpHeart, EffectID:=msoAnimEffectChangeFillColor, _ Trigger:=msoAnimTriggerAfterPrevious) Set bhvEffect = effNew.Behaviors.Add(msoAnimTypeFilter) With bhvEffect.FilterEffect .Type = msoAnimFilterEffectTypeWipe .Subtype = msoAnimFilterEffectSubtypeUp .Reveal = msoTrue End With End Sub
