Fields
| Custom | The custom shape type. This member is only used when shape is read from the file, but its actual type is currently not supported. |
| Diamond | The Diamond. |
| DownArrow | The block arrow pointing down. Use adjust value 'adj1' to specify the thickness of the arrow shaft as a percentage of the width of the whole shape. Adjust value should be in range from 0 to 100000. Value of 0 yields very thin shaft (almost invisible) and value of 100000 forms the shaft of the same thickness as the width of the whole shape. Default value is 50000, which means that the arrow shaft thickness will be half of the shape width. Use adjust value 'adj2' to specify the length of the arrow tip as a percentage of the width of the whole shape. Adjust value should be in range from 0 to 100000 * Math.Max(height / width, 1). Value of 0 yields very small tip (almost invisible) and value of 100000 * Math.Max(height / width, 1) forms the tip of the same length as the height of the whole shape. Default value is 50000, which means that the arrow tip length will be half of the shape width. |
