Specifies that the first segment of the callout line (the segment attached to the text callout box) retain a fixed length whenever the callout is moved.
Syntax
expression.CustomLength (Length)
expression A variable that represents a CalloutFormat object.
Parameters
| Name | Required/Optional | Data type | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Length | Required | Single | The length of the first segment of the callout, in points. |
Return value
Nothing
Remarks
Use the AutomaticLength method to specify that the first segment of the callout line be scaled automatically whenever the callout is moved. Applies only to callouts whose lines consist of more than one segment (types msoCalloutThree and msoCalloutFour).
Applying this method sets the AutoLengthproperty to False and sets the Length property to the value specified for the Length argument.
Example
This example switches between an automatically scaling first segment and one with a fixed length for the callout line for shape one on myDocument. For the example to work, shape one must be a callout.
Set myDocument = ActivePresentation.Slides(1)
With myDocument.Shapes(1).Callout
If .AutoLength Then
.CustomLength 50
Else
.AutomaticLength
End If
End With
