Layer.CreateGridBoxes

Function CreateGridBoxes(Left As Double, Top As Double, Right As Double, Bottom As Double, Wide As Long, High As Long) As Shape

Member of Layer

The CreateGridBoxes method creates a group of rectangles (as if using Graph Paper tool).


Parameters	Description
Left	Specifies the distance from the left side of the first rectangle grid box to the left side of the page frame. The value is measured in document units.
Top	Specifies the distance from the top of the first rectangle grid box to the top of the page frame. The value is measured in document units.
Right	Specifies the distance from the right side of the first rectangle grid box to the right side of the page frame. The value is measured in document units.
Bottom	Specifies the distance from the bottom of the first rectangle grid box to the bottom of the page frame. The value is measured in document units.
Wide	Defines the horizontal size of each rectangular grid box. This value is measured in document units.
High	Defines the vertical measurement of the rectangle. This value is measured in document units.

The following code example creates a series of rectangles on the active layer, resembling 2 ?3 graph paper:

Sub Test() 
 ActiveLayer.CreateGridBoxes 0, 0, 5, 5, 2, 3 
End Sub
