Drop Property Example

This example replaces the custom drop for shape one on myDocument with one of two preset drops, depending on whether the custom drop value is greater than or less than half the height of the callout text box. For the example to work, shape one must be a callout.

Set myDocument = ActiveDocument
With myDocument.Shapes(1).Callout
    If .DropType = msoCalloutDropCustom Then
        If .Drop < .Parent.Height / 2 Then
            .PresetDrop msoCalloutDropTop
        Else
            .PresetDrop msoCalloutDropBottom
        End If
    End If
End With
