expression.ScaleWidth(Factor, RelativeToOriginalSize, fScale)
expression Required. An expression that returns one of the objects in the Applies To list.
Factor Required Single. Specifies the ratio between the width of the shape after you resize it and the current or original width. For example, to make a rectangle 50 percent larger, specify 1.5 for this argument.
RelativeToOriginalSize Required MsoTriState. Specifies whether to scale relative to the object's original or current size.
MsoTriState can be one of these MsoTriState constants. |
msoCTrue Not used with this method. |
msoFalse Scales the shape relative to its current size. |
msoTriStateMixed Not used with this method. |
msoTriStateToggle Not used with this method. |
msoTrue Scales the shape relative to its original size. |
fScale Optional MsoScaleFrom. The part of the shape that retains its position when the shape is scaled.
MsoScaleFrom can be one of these MsoScaleFrom constants. |
msoScaleFromBottomRight |
msoScaleFromMiddle |
msoScaleFromTopLeft default |
Remarks
Shapes other than pictures and OLE objects are always scaled relative to their current width; specifying a RelativeToOriginalSize value of msoTrue for shapes other than pictures or OLE objects causes an error.
Use the ScaleHeight method to scale the height of a shape.
Example
This example scales all pictures and OLE objects on the first page of the active publication to 175 percent of their original height and width, and it scales all other shapes to 175 percent of their current height and width.
