Insert Method

         Example         Applies To

Inserts a new segment after the specified node of the freeform.

Syntax

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 Long. The type of segment to be added. Can be either of the following MsoSegmentType constants: msoSegmentCurve or msoSegmentLine.

EditingType   Required Long. The editing property of the vertex. Can be either of the following MsoEditingType constants: msoEditingAuto or msoEditingCorner (cannot be msoEditingSmooth or msoEditingSymmetric).

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.
