Shape.RerouteConnections Method 

  • Article

Reroutes connectors so that they take the shortest possible path between the shapes they connect.

Namespace: Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel
Assembly: Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel (in microsoft.office.interop.excel.dll)

Usage

Dim shape1 As Shape
shape1.RerouteConnections()

Syntax

Sub RerouteConnections()

void RerouteConnections();

public: Void RerouteConnections();

public void RerouteConnections();

function RerouteConnections();

Remarks

To use the shortest path, the RerouteConnections method may detach the ends of a connector and reattach them to different connecting sites on the connected shapes. This method reroutes all connectors attached to the specified shape; if the specified shape is a connector, it’s rerouted.

If this method is applied to a connector, only that connector will be rerouted. If this method is applied to a connected shape, all connectors to that shape will be rerouted.
