Property Value

Type	Description
ShapeTextFont	A ShapeTextFont object containing font settings for a shape text range.

Remarks

Use the ShapeTextFont properties to change ShapeTextRange object’s color, capitalization, size, etc.

When you insert a new text range in a shape, its ShapeTextFont properties have the same values as the existing ShapeTextFont object’s font options.

Note

If a current ShapeTextRange object contains text with different font settings, the ShapeTextFont properties return the first text’s values.

Example

C#

ShapeText shapeText = shape4.ShapeText;

//Create a text range:
ShapeTextRange range = shapeText.Characters();

//Specify the shape's text 
range.Text = "Shape ";

//Set font properties:
range.Font.Bold = true;
range.Font.Color = Color.YellowGreen;

//Add new text range after the existing text
//And specify the font parameters:         
ShapeTextRange range2 = range.AddAfter("Text");
range2.Font.Italic = true;
range2.Font.Name = "Arial";
range2.Font.Color = Color.BurlyWood;

//Define the text's vertical and horizontal alignment:
shapeText.VerticalAnchor = ShapeTextVerticalAnchorType.Center;
shapeText.HorizontalAnchor = ShapeTextHorizontalAnchorType.Center;

VB.NET

Dim shapeText As ShapeText = shape4.ShapeText

'Create a text range:
Dim range As ShapeTextRange = shapeText.Characters()

'Specify the shape's text:
range.Text = "Shape "

'Set font properties:

range2.Font.Name = "Arial"
range2.Font.Color = Color.BurlyWood
