Example
In this example, an organization chart's layout is modified to display as right-hanging instead of standard.
Sub Layout()
Dim nodRoot As DiagramNode
Dim shDiagram As Shape
Dim intCount As Integer
Set shDiagram = ActiveSheet.Shapes.AddDiagram( _
Type:=msoDiagramOrgChart, Top:=10, _
Left:=15, Width:=400, Height:=475)
Set nodRoot = shDiagram.DiagramNode.Children.AddNode
' Add three mode nodes.
For intCount = 1 To 3
nodRoot.Children.AddNode
Next
' Change the layout to right-hanging.
nodRoot.Layout = msoOrgChartLayoutRightHanging
End Sub
