Application.WindowBeforeRightClick event (PowerPoint)

  • Articolo

Occurs when you right-click a shape, a slide, a notes page, or some text. This event is triggered by the MouseUp event.

Syntax

expression. WindowBeforeRightClick( _Sel_, _Cancel_ )

expression A variable that represents an Application object.

Parameters

Name Required/Optional Data type Description
Sel Required Selection The selection below the mouse pointer when the right-click occurred.
Cancel Required Boolean False when the event occurs. If the event procedure sets this argument to True, the default context menu does not appear when the procedure is finished.

Example

This example creates a duplicate of the selected shape. If the shape has a text frame, it adds the text "Duplicate Shape" to the new shape. Setting the Cancel argument to True then prevents the default context menu from appearing.

Private Sub App_WindowBeforeRightClick(ByVal Sel As Selection, Cancel As Boolean)

    With ActivePresentation.Selection.ShapeRange

        If .HasTextFrame Then

            .Duplicate.TextFrame.TextRange.Text = "Duplicate Shape"

        Else

            .Duplicate

        End If

        Cancel = True

    End With

End Sub
