AutoLength Property
Applies To
CalloutFormat object.
Description
True if the first segment of the callout line (the segment attached to the text callout box) is scaled automatically whenever the callout is moved. False if the first segment of the callout retains the fixed length specified by the Length property whenever the callout is moved. Applies only to callouts whose lines consist of more than one segment (types msoCalloutThree and msoCalloutFour). Read-only Long.
Remarks
This property is read-only. Use the AutomaticLength method to set this property to True, and use the CustomLength method to set this property to False.
Example
This example toggles between an automatically scaling first segment and one with a fixed length for the callout line for shape one on myDocument. For the example to work, shape one must be a callout.
Set myDocument = ActivePresentation.Slides(1)
With myDocument.Shapes(1).Callout
If .AutoLength Then
.CustomLength 50
Else
.AutomaticLength
End If
End With
