So I have an image on a slide and I need to get the position of said image in points, but I only know its position in centimeters. I need the points so that I can place another image directly over it with the following VBA code:
Set myImageBox = mySlide.Shapes.AddPicture(ActivePresentation.Path & "\X.png", False, True, xPos, yPos, -1, -1)
Where xPos
and yPos
are the coordinates of the image I am trying to overlay. I am a bit of a novice with VBA as far as PPT is concerned.
Any ideas?
You can pull the location from the existing object before you set the next one.
You can use .Left
for X
and .Top
for Y
Example:
xPos = yourShape.Left
yPos = yourShape.Top
Note:
You will need to find the shape and assign it to an Object
named yourShape
for the example code to work.
