The horizontal position, measured in points, of the connector's starting point relative to the left edge of the slide.
- BeginY
Type: System.Single
The vertical position, measured in points, of the connector's starting point relative to the top edge of the slide.
- EndX
Type: System.Single
The horizontal position, measured in points, of the connector's ending point relative to the left edge of the slide.

Remarks
When you attach a connector to a shape, the size and position of the connector are automatically adjusted, if necessary. Therefore, if you're going to attach a connector to other shapes, the position and dimensions you specify when adding the connector are irrelevant.
