ShapeTemplate.CompleteDefinition Method

Completes a shape definition.

 Syntax

VB6

Public Sub CompleteDefinition( _
    ByVal ShapeId As String _
)

C++

public:
void CompleteDefinition (
    BSTR ShapeId
)

 Parameters

ShapeId

The identifier of the new shape.

 Remarks

The shape outline is automatically closed and the text region is converted to polygon if there are Bezier curves used in its definition. Additionally, the shape template is added to the Shapes collection, which allows the template to be accessed later by its integer index or string identifier.

It is necessary to call this method for each shape template you define.
