Example

The following example adds a pyramid diagram to a slide and converts it to a radial diagram.

Sub ConvertPyramidDiagram()

    Dim dgnNode As DiagramNode
    Dim shpDiagram As Shape
    Dim intNodes As Integer

    'Adds pryamid diagra and first child node
    Set shpDiagram = ActivePresentation.Slides(1).Shapes.AddDiagram _
        (Type:=msoDiagramPyramid, Left:=10, Top:=15, _
        Width:=400, Height:=475)
    Set dgnNode = shpDiagram.DiagramNode.Children.AddNode

    'Adds three additional child nodes
    For intNodes = 1 To 3
        dgnNode.AddNode
    Next intNodes

    'Automatically formats the diagram and converts it to a radial diagram
    With dgnNode.Diagram
        .AutoFormat = msoTrue
        .Convert  Type:=msoDiagramRadial
    End With
