Window.Type Property

Visio Automation Reference

Returns the type of the object. Read-only.

Version Information
 Version Added:  Visio 2.0

Syntax

expression.Type

expression   A variable that represents a Window object.

Return Value
Integer

Remarks

Type value constants for Window objects (the possible values that the Type property of a Window object returns) are declared by the Visio type library in VisWinTypes.

If a Window object is type visDrawing, use the SubType property to determine the type of drawing window represented by the object.

Example

This Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) macro shows how to use the Type property to determine the type of a window.

Visual Basic for Applications 
  
Public Sub Type_Example()
 
    Dim vsoMaster As Visio.Master 
    Dim vsoShape As Visio.Shape 
    Dim vsoIconWindow As Visio.Window 
    Dim vsoShapeSheetWindow As Visio.Window
    Dim vsoStencilWindow As Visio.Window 

'Draw a shape.
Set vsoShape = ActivePage.DrawRectangle(1, 1, 2, 3) 

'Open the document stencil window.
Set vsoStencilWindow = ThisDocument.OpenStencilWindow

'Open the ShapeSheet window of vsoShape.
Set vsoShapeSheetWindow = vsoShape.OpenSheetWindow 

'Add a master to the document stencil and open its icon editing window.
Set vsoMaster = ThisDocument.Masters.Add 
Set vsoIconWindow = vsoMaster.OpenIconWindow 

'Use the Type property to verify each window's type.
'This will print 7, 3, and 4 in the Immediate window to indicate 
'a docked, built-in stencil window; a ShapeSheet window; and an 
'icon editing window, respectively.
Debug.Print vsoStencilWindow.Type 
Debug.Print vsoShapeSheetWindow.Type 
Debug.Print vsoIconWindow.Type 



End Sub
