Remarks

This enumeration is used by the StackOrder property. For more information about actions panes, see Actions Pane Overview.

Examples

The following code example demonstrates the effects of the StackOrder property. A Button control on the actions pane alternates the value of StackOrder (for example, if the orientation of the actions pane is vertical when the button is clicked, then a value of FromTop becomes FromBottom). If you move the actions pane and raise the OrientationChanged event, the event handler also updates the StackOrder property.

Private Sub InitActionsPane()
    With Globals.ThisWorkbook.ActionsPane
        .Clear()
        .Visible = True
        .AutoRecover = True 
    End With 

    AddHandler Globals.ThisWorkbook.ActionsPane.OrientationChanged, _
        AddressOf ActionsPane_OrientationChanged
    ResetStackOrder()

    ' Create the button that will update the stack order. 
    Dim button1 As New Button()
    button1.Text = "Change stack order" 
    AddHandler button1.Click, AddressOf button1_Click

    ' Create two more buttons that do nothing. 
    Dim button2 As New Button()
    button2.Text = "Button 2" 
    Dim button3 As New Button()
    button3.Text = "Button 3"

    Globals.ThisWorkbook.ActionsPane.Controls.AddRange(New Control() _
        {button1, button2, button3})
