Default Set shape properties exactly

Hi,

I am currently using the "Block arc"-shape in Powerpoint for which it is possible to adjust width and length of the shape by dragging the small yellow squares. Since it is a quite time consuming exercise to get e.g. the width exactly the same, I wonder if it is possible to specify the properties adjusted by the yellow squares to an exact number instead?

/Anders

In code yes but not from the GUI as far as I know.

Ok, as I suspected. Probably have to continue with the small yellow squares then... Thanks for your answer!

If you just want to set all the shapes to the same setting as a sample the code is very simple.
