Shapes.AddConnector method (PowerPoint)

Creates a connector. Returns a Shape object that represents the new connector. When a connector is added, it is not connected to anything. Use the BeginConnect and EndConnect methods to attach the beginning and end of a connector to other shapes in the document.

Syntax

expression.AddConnector (Type, BeginX, BeginY, EndX, EndY)

expression A variable that represents a Shapes object.

Parameters

Name Required/Optional Data type Description
Type Required MsoConnectorType The type of connector.
BeginX Required Single The horizontal position, measured in points, of the connector's starting point relative to the left edge of the slide.
BeginY Required Single The vertical position, measured in points, of the connector's starting point relative to the top edge of the slide.
EndX Required Single The horizontal position, measured in points, of the connector's ending point relative to the left edge of the slide.
EndY Required Single The vertical position, measured in points, of the connector's ending point relative to the top edge of the slide.

Return value

Shape

Remarks

When you attach a connector to a shape, the size and position of the connector are automatically adjusted, if necessary. Therefore, if you are going to attach a connector to other shapes, the position and dimensions you specify when adding the connector are irrelevant.

Example

This example adds two rectangles to myDocument and connects them with a curved connector. Note that when you attach the connector to the rectangles, the size and position of the connector are automatically adjusted; therefore, the position and dimensions you specify when adding the callout are irrelevant (dimensions must be nonzero).

Sub NewConnector() 
 
    Dim shpShapes As Shapes 
    Dim shpFirst As Shape 
    Dim shpSecond As Shape 
 
    Set shpShapes = ActivePresentation.Slides(1).Shapes 
    Set shpFirst = shpShapes.AddShape(Type:=msoShapeRectangle, _ 
        Left:=100, Top:=50, Width:=200, Height:=100) 
    Set shpSecond = shpShapes.AddShape(Type:=msoShapeRectangle, _ 
        Left:=300, Top:=300, Width:=200, Height:=100) 
    With shpShapes.AddConnector(Type:=msoConnectorCurve, BeginX:=0, _ 
            BeginY:=0, EndX:=100, EndY:=100).ConnectorFormat 
        .BeginConnect ConnectedShape:=shpFirst, ConnectionSite:=1 
        .EndConnect ConnectedShape:=shpSecond, ConnectionSite:=1 
        .Parent.RerouteConnections 
    End With 
 
End Sub
