Remarks

[ API set: PowerPointApi 1.4 ]

Properties

color

Represents the line color in HTML color format, in the form #RRGGBB (e.g., "FFA500") or as a named HTML color (e.g., "orange").

context

The request context associated with the object. This connects the add-in's process to the Office host application's process.

dashStyle

Represents the dash style of the line. Returns null when the line is not visible or there are inconsistent dash styles. See PowerPoint.ShapeLineDashStyle for details.

style

Represents the line style of the shape. Returns null when the line is not visible or there are inconsistent styles. See PowerPoint.ShapeLineStyle for details.

transparency

Specifies the transparency percentage of the line as a value from 0.0 (opaque) through 1.0 (clear). Returns null when the shape has inconsistent transparencies.

visible

Specifies if the line formatting of a shape element is visible. Returns null when the shape has inconsistent visibilities.

weight

Represents the weight of the line, in points. Returns null when the line is not visible or there are inconsistent line weights.

Methods

load(options)

Queues up a command to load the specified properties of the object. You must call context.sync() before reading the properties.

load(propertyNames)

Queues up a command to load the specified properties of the object. You must call context.sync() before reading the properties.

load(propertyNamesAndPaths)

Queues up a command to load the specified properties of the object. You must call context.sync() before reading the properties.

toJSON()

Overrides the JavaScript toJSON() method in order to provide more useful output when an API object is passed to JSON.stringify(). (JSON.stringify, in turn, calls the toJSON method of the object that is passed to it.) Whereas the original PowerPoint.ShapeLineFormat object is an API object, the toJSON method returns a plain JavaScript object (typed as PowerPoint.Interfaces.ShapeLineFormatData) that contains shallow copies of any loaded child properties from the original object.

load(options?: PowerPoint.Interfaces.ShapeLineFormatLoadOptions): PowerPoint.ShapeLineFormat;

Parameters

options
PowerPoint.Interfaces.ShapeLineFormatLoadOptions

Provides options for which properties of the object to load.

Returns

load(propertyNames)

Parameters

propertyNames

string | string[]
