Namespace:  Microsoft.Office.Tools
Assembly:  Microsoft.Office.Tools.Common.v9.0 (in Microsoft.Office.Tools.Common.v9.0.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Event OrientationChanged As EventHandler

'Usage
Dim instance As ActionsPane 
Dim handler As EventHandler

JScript does not support events.

Remarks

This event occurs when a user moves the Document Actions task pane to a new location relative to the document.

Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to create a simple actions pane that automatically adjusts the alignment of its contents. When the user moves the actions pane to a different part of the application window, the event handler for the OrientationChanged event uses the Orientation property to determine the new stack order of the controls in the actions pane. To run this code, call the InitActionsPane method from the ThisWorkbook_Startup event handler of a Microsoft Office Excel project.

    button1.Text = "Change stack order" 
    AddHandler button1.Click, AddressOf button1_Click
