ShapeRange.Left Property (Word)
Returns or sets a Single that represents the horizontal position, measured in points, of the specified range of shapes. Can also be any valid WdShapePosition constant. Read/write.
Syntax
expression .Left
expression Required. A variable that represents a ShapeRange object.
Remarks
The position of a shape is measured from the upper-left corner of the shape's bounding box to the shape's anchor. The RelativeHorizontalPosition property controls whether the anchor is positioned alongside a character, column, margin, or the edge of the page.
For a ShapeRange object that contains more than one shape, the Left property sets the horizontal position of each shape.
Example
This example sets the horizontal position of the first and second shapes in the active document to 1 inch from the left edge of the column.
With ActiveDocument.Shapes.Range(Array(1, 2))
.RelativeHorizontalPosition = _
wdRelativeHorizontalPositionColumn
.Left = InchesToPoints(1)
End With
