Example

The following example shows how to create a polyline.

Sub Main

 

 'Declares GrapherApp as an object

  Dim GrapherApp As Object

 

 'Creates an instance of the Grapher Application object

 'and assigns it to the variable named "GrapherApp"

  Set GrapherApp = CreateObject("Grapher.Application")

 

 'Make Grapher visible

  GrapherApp.Visible = True

 

 'Declare Docs as Object

  Dim Docs As Object

 

 'Assigns the Documents collection to

 'the variable named "Docs"

  Set Docs = GrapherApp.Documents

 

 'Declare Plot As Object

  Dim Plot As Object

 

 'Creates a new plot window and assigns it

 'to the variable named "Plot"

  Set Plot = Docs.Add(grfPlotDoc)

 

 'Declare Shapes As Object

  Dim Shapes As Object

 

 'Assigns the AutoShapes collection to

 'the variable named "Shapes"

  Set Shapes = Plot.Shapes

 

 'Add Polyline

  Dim Polyline As Object

  Dim LineCoordinates (8) As Double

  LineCoordinates(0) = 4: LineCoordinates(1) = 1

  LineCoordinates(2) = 7: LineCoordinates(3) = 3

  LineCoordinates(4) = 2: LineCoordinates(5) = 6

  LineCoordinates(6) = 1:LineCoordinates(7) = 10

  Set Polyline = Shapes.AddPolyline(LineCoordinates)
