View Shapes Window

B

Big Dave

I am using visio with automation and my application has a design mode
and a run mode. When in run mode i would like to turn off the shapes
window, as on the view menu. Then turn it back on when in design mode.
Anyone know if this is possible from VBA.

Thanks

in the developers reference for automation (available via help), check
enumerations for visio window types. These are the constants needed to open
and close windows. You can also do it with docmd
vsoApplication.DoCmd(visCmdPanZoom) ' opens the pan zoom window

thanks, but i had looked throught them and couldnt find one that seems
to relate to the shape window, just the search on the shape window.

if by shapes you mean Stencils then you want window type 7 or
visDockedStencilBuiltIn.
