AddAnchoredShape(AnchoredShape) Method

Adds an anchored shape with the specified size to the current paragraph.

Syntax

Visual Basic

'Declaration
 
Public Overloads Overrides Sub AddAnchoredShape( _
   ByVal anchoredShape As AnchoredShape _
) 

C#

public override void AddAnchoredShape( 
   AnchoredShape anchoredShape
)

Parameters

anchoredShape

The AnchoredShape instance to be added to the paragraph.

Exceptions

Exception	Description
WordDocumentWriterException	Thrown if no document or paragraph is currently open.
WordDocumentWriterXmlWriterException	Thrown if the XmlWriter used to write content to the stream throws an exception.

Remarks

An AnchoredShape instance can be obtained using the CreateAnchoredShape method. An existing instance can also be used; changing properties on that instance does not affect previously added shapes because the information is written to the stream immediately.

Before the AddAnchoredShape method can be called, the developer must begin a paragraph via the StartParagraph method, or an exception is thrown.

Shapes are rendered by the consumer using Vector Markup Language (VML), which is supported in both MS Word 2007 and MS Word 2010.
