ApplicationSettings.SnapStrengthRulerX property (Visio)

  • Article

Specifies the distance in pixels along the x-axis that rulers pull when snapping is enabled. Read/write.

Syntax

expression.SnapStrengthRulerX

expression A variable that represents an ApplicationSettings object.

Return value

Long

Remarks

Setting the SnapStrengthRulerX property is equivalent to setting the Rulers option under Snap strength on the Advanced tab in the Snap & Glue dialog box (click the Visual Aids arrow on the View tab). Setting snap strength in the UI sets both x and y values to the same value.

The minimum allowable value for the SnapStrengthRulerX property is 0 (zero), and the maximum is 999. Attempting to set a value outside that range returns an error. The default value is 4.

Example

This Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) macro shows how to use the SnapStrengthRulerX property to print the current snap strength ruler x -axis setting in the Immediate window. It also shows how to get an ApplicationSettings object from the Visio Application object.

Public Sub SnapStrengthRulerX_Example() 
 
 Dim vsoApplicationSettings As Visio.ApplicationSettings 
 Dim lngSnapStrength As Long 
 
 Set vsoApplicationSettings = Visio.Application.Settings 
 lngSnapStrength = vsoApplicationSettings.SnapStrengthRulerX 
 
 Debug.Print lngSnapStrength 
 
End Sub
