VerticalAnchor Property

See Also         Example         Applies To

Returns or sets the vertical alignment of text in a text frame. Can be one of the following MsoVerticalAnchor constants: msoAnchorBottom, msoAnchorBottomBaseLine, msoAnchorMiddle, msoAnchorTop, msoAnchorTopBaseLine, or msoVerticalAnchorMixed. Read/write Long.

Remarks

The msoAnchorBottomBaseLine and msoAnchorTopBaseLine constants are used to anchor the bottom of the text string to the current position regardless of the resizing of text. When you resize text without baseline anchoring, the text centers itself on the previous position.

The msoVerticalAnchorMixed constant is read-only and is returned when two or more text boxes within a shape range have this property set to different values.
