EdgeSymbol Creation Sample

This sample is to demonstrate how to create a EdgeSymbol in drawing document.

Copy Code

Public Sub CreateEdgeSymbol()
    
    ' Set a reference to the drawing document.
    ' This assumes a drawing document is active.
    Dim oDrawDoc As DrawingDocument
    Set oDrawDoc = ThisApplication.ActiveDocument

    ' Set a reference to the active sheet.
    Dim oActiveSheet As Sheet
    Set oActiveSheet = oDrawDoc.ActiveSheet

    ' Set a reference to the TransientGeometry object.
    Dim oTG As TransientGeometry
    Set oTG = ThisApplication.TransientGeometry
    
    ' Specify the leader points
    Dim oPoints(1 To 2) As Point2d
    Set oPoints(1) = oTG.CreatePoint2d(10, 10)
    Set oPoints(2) = oTG.CreatePoint2d(13, 15)
       
    Dim oLeaderPoints As ObjectCollection
    Set oLeaderPoints = ThisApplication.TransientObjects.CreateObjectCollection
    
    Dim i As Long
    For i = 1 To 2
        Call oLeaderPoints.Add(oPoints(i))
    Next
    
    Dim oEdgeSymbolDef As EdgeSymbolDefinition
    Set oEdgeSymbolDef = oActiveSheet.EdgeSymbols.CreateDefinition(kEdgeSymbolValueNoValues, kAllEdgesIndicationType)
    
    ' Create teh edge symbol.
    Dim oEdgeSymbol As EdgeSymbol
    Set oEdgeSymbol = oActiveSheet.EdgeSymbols.Add(oLeaderPoints, oEdgeSymbolDef)
End Sub
