BulletFormat.UseTextColor property (PowerPoint)

Determines whether the specified bullets are set to the color of the first text character in the paragraph. Read/write.

Syntax

expression. UseTextColor

expression A variable that represents an BulletFormat object.

Return value

MsoTriState

Remarks

You cannot explicitly set this property to msoFalse. Setting the bullet format color (using the Color property of the Font object) sets this property to msoFalse. When UseTextColor is msoFalse, you can set it to msoTrue to reset the bullet format to the default color.

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

Constant Description
msoFalse The specified bullets are set to any other color.
msoTrue The specified bullets are set to the color of the first text character in the paragraph.

Example

With ActivePresentation.Slides(1).Shapes(2) 
    With .TextFrame.TextRange.ParagraphFormat.Bullet 
        .RelativeSize = 1 
        .UseTextColor = msoTrue 
        .UseTextFont = msoTrue 
        .Character = 8226 
    End With
