Sets the segment type of the segment that follows the node specified by Index. If the node is a control point for a curved segment, this method sets the segment type for that curve. Note that this may affect the total number of nodes by inserting or deleting adjacent nodes.

Syntax

expression.SetSegmentType(Index, SegmentType)

expression A variable that represents a ShapeNodes object.

Parameters

Name Required/Optional Data Type Description
Index Required Long The node whose segment type is to be set.
SegmentType Required MsoSegmentType Specifies if the segment is straight or curved.

Remarks

MsoSegmentType can be one of these MsoSegmentType constants.
msoSegmentCurve
msoSegmentLine

Example

This example changes all straight segments to curved segments in shape three on myDocument. Shape three must be a freeform drawing.

Visual Basic for Applications 
Set myDocument = ActivePresentation.Slides(1) With myDocument.Shapes(3).Nodes n = 1 While n <= .Count If .Item(n).SegmentType = msoSegmentLine Then .SetSegmentType n, msoSegmentCurve End If n = n + 1 Wend End With
