Node.AbsoluteIndex

Property AbsoluteIndex As Long

Member of Node

The AbsoluteIndex property returns the number (index) of a node within a curve (containing all subpaths).

The Index property returns the number (index) of the node within its subpath. The Index and AbsoluteIndex properties return the same value if the node belongs to the first subpath of the curve.

The AbsoluteIndex property returns a read-only value.

The following code example loops through all of the nodes of each subpath and prints the nodes’ Index and AbsoluteIndex property in the Intermediate window of the Visual Basic Editor:

Sub Test() 
 Dim s As Shape 
 Dim sp As SubPath 
 Dim n As Node 
 Set s = ActiveShape 
 If s.Type = cdrCurveShape Then 
  For Each sp In s.Curve.Subpaths 
   For Each n In sp.Nodes 
    Debug.Print n.Index, n.AbsoluteIndex 
   Next n 
  Next sp 
 End If 
End Sub
