FilterEffect.Reveal Property (PowerPoint)

Determines how the embedded objects will be revealed. Read/write.

Syntax

expression .Reveal

expression A variable that represents a FilterEffect object.

Return Value

MsoTriState

Remarks

Setting a value of msoTrue for the Reveal property when the filter effect type is msoAnimFilterEffectTypeWipe will make the shape appear. Setting a value of msoFalse will make the object disappear. In other words, if your filter is set to wipe and Reveal is true, you will get a wipe-in effect, and when Reveal is false, you will get a wipe-out effect.

The value of the Reveal property can be one of these MsoTriState constants.

Example

The following example adds a shape to the first slide of the active presentation and sets a filter effect animation behavior.

Sub ChangeFilterEffect()

    Dim sldFirst As Slide

    Dim shpHeart As Shape

    Dim effNew As Effect

    Dim bhvEffect As AnimationBehavior



    Set sldFirst = ActivePresentation.Slides(1)

    Set shpHeart = sldFirst.Shapes.AddShape(Type:=msoShapeHeart, _

        Left:=100, Top:=100, Width:=100, Height:=100)

    Set effNew = sldFirst.TimeLine.MainSequence.AddEffect _

        (Shape:=shpHeart, EffectID:=msoAnimEffectChangeFillColor, _

        Trigger:=msoAnimTriggerAfterPrevious)

    Set bhvEffect = effNew.Behaviors.Add(msoAnimTypeFilter)

 

    With bhvEffect.FilterEffect

         .Type = msoAnimFilterEffectTypeWipe

         .Subtype = msoAnimFilterEffectSubtypeUp

         .Reveal = msoTrue

    End With

End Sub
