Glue on 2D shape instead of connector?
Hi everyone, I think this is pretty simple question, but I can't seem to find
the answer anywhere. I've written some VBA code to traverse a flow chart and highlight 2D shapes ahead of a selected 2D shape. The code works, but I can't get code to respect the direction of my connections. The reason for this is that static and dynamic line connections always flag the line as having glue on both ends, with no glue being on the 2D objects. Thus, whenever I use the ..FromConnects in my VBA code it returns ALL connections, not just the next ones ahead in my flow chart. I've tried setting connection points on my lines to inward and outward at each respective end, but I can't seem to get an Inward connection on a 1D object to connect to an Outward point on a 2D object. I can get it to work if I use 2D shapes to connect to each other instead of lines, but it looks really ugly in the flow chart. What am I missing here?! Thanks to anyone who can help. :-) |
