ShapeNode Object

  • Article
Word Developer Reference

Represents the geometry and the geometry-editing properties of the nodes in a user-defined freeform. Nodes include the vertices between the segments of the freeform and the control points for curved segments. The ShapeNode object is a member of the ShapeNodes collection. The ShapeNodes collection contains all the nodes in a freeform.

Remarks

Use Nodes(Index), where Index is the node index number, to return a single ShapeNode object. If node one in shape three on the active document is a corner point, the following example makes it a smooth point. For this example to work, shape three must be a freeform.

Visual Basic for Applications 
  With ActiveDocument.Shapes(3)
    If .Nodes(1).EditingType = msoEditingCorner Then
        .Nodes.SetEditingType 1, msoEditingSmooth
    End If
End With
