Panes Collection Object

A collection of Pane objects that represent the slide, outline, and notes panes in the document window for normal view, or the single pane of any other view in the document window.

Using the Panes Collection

Use the Panes property to return the Panes collection. The following example tests for the number of panes in the active window. If the value is one, indicating any view other that normal view, then normal view is activated and the vertical pane divider is set to divide the document window at 15% outline pane and 85% slide pane.

With ActiveWindow
    If .Panes.Count = 1 Then
        .ViewType = ppViewNormal
        .SplitHorizontal = 15
    End If
End With
		

Remarks

In normal view, the Panes collection contains three members. All other document window views have only a single pane, resulting in a Panes collection with one member.
