Page.PageSheet Property (Visio)

  • Article

Returns the page sheet (an object that represents the ShapeSheet spreadsheet) of a page. Read-only.

Version Information

Version Added: Visio 4.0

Syntax

expression .PageSheet

expression A variable that represents a Page object.

Return Value

Shape

Remarks

Every page contains a tree of Shape objects. Constants representing shape types are prefixed with visType and are declared by the Visio type library in VisShapeTypes.

In the tree of shapes of a page, there is exactly one shape of type visTypePage. This shape is always the root shape in the tree, and the PageSheet property returns this shape.

The page sheet contains important settings for the page such as its size and scale. It also contains the Layers section that defines the layers for that page.

An alternative way to obtain a page's page shape is to use the following macro:

Sub PagePageSheet_Example() 
 
 Dim vsoShape As Visio.Shape 
 Dim vsoShapes As Visio.Shapes 
 Dim vsoPage As Visio.Page 
 Set vsoPage = ActivePage 
 Set vsoShapes = vsoPage.Shapes 
 Set vsoShape = vsoShapes("ThePage") 
 
End Sub
