Insert Method
Inserts a new segment after the specified node of the freeform.
expression.Insert(Index, SegmentType, EditingType, X1, Y1, X2, Y2, X3, Y3)
expression Required. An expression that returns a ShapeNodes object.
Index Required Long. The node that the new node is to be inserted after.
SegmentType Required MsoSegmentType. The type of segment to be added.
| MsoSegmentType can be one of these MsoSegmentType constants. |
| msoSegmentCurve |
| msoSegmentLine |
EditingType Required MsoEditingType. The editing property of the vertex.
| MsoEditingType can be one of these MsoEditingType constants (cannot be msoEditingSmooth or msoEditingSymmetric). |
| msoEditingAuto |
| msoEditingCorner |
X1 Required Single. If the EditingType of the new segment is msoEditingAuto, this argument specifies the horizontal distance (in points) from the upper-left corner of the document to the end point of the new segment. If the EditingType of the new node is msoEditingCorner, this argument specifies the horizontal distance (in points) from the upper-left corner of the document to the first control point for the new segment.
Y1 Required Single. If the EditingType of the new segment is msoEditingAuto, this argument specifies the vertical distance (in points) from the upper-left corner of the document to the end point of the new segment. If the EditingType of the new node is msoEditingCorner, this argument specifies the vertical distance (in points) from the upper-left corner of the document to the first control point for the new segment.
X2 Optional Single. If the EditingType of the new segment is msoEditingCorner, this argument specifies the horizontal distance (in points) from the upper-left corner of the document to the second control point for the new segment. If the EditingType of the new segment is msoEditingAuto, don't specify a value for this argument.
Y2 Optional Single. If the EditingType of the new segment is msoEditingCorner, this argument specifies the vertical distance (in points) from the upper-left corner of the document to the second control point for the new segment. If the EditingType of the new segment is msoEditingAuto, don't specify a value for this argument.
X3 Optional Single. If the EditingType of the new segment is msoEditingCorner, this argument specifies the horizontal distance (in points) from the upper-left corner of the document to the end point of the new segment. If the EditingType of the new segment is msoEditingAuto, don't specify a value for this argument.
Y3 Optional Single. If the EditingType of the new segment is msoEditingCorner, this argument specifies the vertical distance (in points) from the upper-left corner of the document to the end point of the new segment. If the EditingType of the new segment is msoEditingAuto, don't specify a value for this argument.
Example
This example adds a smooth node with a curved segment after node four in shape three on myDocument. Shape three must be a freeform drawing with at least four nodes.
Set myDocument = ActivePresentation.Slides(1)
With myDocument.Shapes(3).Nodes
.Insert Index:=4, SegmentType:=msoSegmentCurve, _
EditingType:=msoEditingSmooth, X1:=210, Y1:=100
End With
