Shape object (Visio)

Represents anything you can select in a drawing window: a basic shape, a group, a guide, or an object from another application embedded or linked in Microsoft Visio.

Remarks

The default property of a Shape object is Name.

You can retrieve a particular Shape object from the Shapes collection of the following objects:

  • Page object
  • Master object
  • Shape object that represents a group

To retrieve Cell objects and Connect objects, use the Cells and Connects properties of a Shape object, respectively.

The PageSheet property of a Page object and Master object returns a Shape object whose Type property returns visTypePage. It has cells that specify properties such as drawing size and drawing scale.

The DocumentSheet property of a Document object also returns a Shape object whose Type property returns visTypeDoc. It has cells that specify properties of the document.
