rules (Rule Set)

This element specifies a list of rule entries which describe how a certain shape or sets of shapes should behave during editing.

[Example: The following rule defines a connection between two shapes. The shape with id _s1036 connects shape _s1033 to _s1032:

<o:shapelayout v:ext="edit">
  <o:rules v:ext="edit">
    <o:r id="V:Rule1" type="connector" idref="#_s1036">
      <o:proxy start="" idref="#_s1033" connectloc="0"/>
      <o:proxy end="" idref="#_s1032" connectloc="2"/>
    </o:r>
  </o:rules>
</o:shapelayout>

end example]

Attributes

Description

ext (VML Extension Handling Behavior)

Namespace: urn:schemas-microsoft-com:vml

Specifies an optional value that indicates how applications that implement VML should interpret extensions not defined as part of the original specification of core VML.

[Rationale: This part of the original VML specification is included to assist applications that leverage existing VML support in implementing the Office Open XML Format. end rationale]

The possible values for this attribute are defined by the ST_Ext simple type (§14.1.3.2).

[Note: The W3C XML Schema definition of this element’s content model (CT_Rules) is located in §A.6.2. end note]
