ContainerProperties.ReorderListMember method (Visio)
Moves a shape or a set of shapes up or down in the list.
Syntax
expression.ReorderListMember (ObjectToReorder, Position)
expression A variable that represents a ContainerProperties object.
Parameters
| Name | Required/Optional | Data type | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| ObjectToReorder | Required | [UNKNOWN] | The shape or shapes to reorder in the container. Can be either Shape or Selection objects. |
| Position | Required | Long | The insertion position in the list, which is one-based. |
Return value
Nothing
Remarks
If the container is not a list, Microsoft Visio returns an Invalid Source error.
If the ObjectToReorder parameter does not contain top-level shapes on the page, if any shape in ObjectToReorder is not a member of the list, or if the list is locked, Visio returns an Invalid Parameter error.
To insert before the first item in the list, pass 1 for the Position parameter.
To insert after the final item in the list, set Position greater than or equal to the count of items.
If you pass an out-of-range value for Position, Visio uses the nearest valid position.
If you pass a non-contiguous selection of list members for ObjectToReorder, Visio makes the selection contiguous in the resulting reordered list, while maintaining relative position. For example, in a list ordered A,B,C,D, if you move B and D to position 1, the resulting list order is B,D,A,C.
Example
The following Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) example shows how to use the ReorderListMember method to move a list member shape to the second position in the list.
