Publisher Developer Reference

Returns an MsoTriState constant that specifies whether a shape is inline (contained in a text run). Read-only.

Syntax

expression.IsInline

expression   A variable that represents a Shape object.

Example

This example tests the first shape (a text frame) on the first page of the publication to see if it is inline. If it is not, a search is done within that shape to find any inline shapes within the text frame. Any inline shapes that are found have the ForeColor property set to red.

Visual Basic for Applications 
  Dim theShape As Shape
Dim i As Integer

Set theShape = ActiveDocument.Pages(1).Shapes(1)


If Not theShape.IsInline = True Then
With theShape.TextFrame.Story.TextRange
If .InlineShapes.Count > 0 Then
For i = 1 To .InlineShapes.Count
.InlineShapes(i).Select
.InlineShapes(i).Fill.ForeColor.RGB = vbRed
Next
End If
End With
End If
