Property Value

Type: System.Int32
An Integer representing the number of shapes in the collection.

Implements

ICollection.Count

Remarks

The Count property can be used to determine how many shapes are in the ShapeCollection. It can also be used to iterate through the collection in a For…Next statement.

Examples

The following example demonstrates the use of the Count property. This example requires that you have a LineShape, an OvalShape, and a RectangleShape control on a form.

Private Sub Shapes_Click(
  ) Handles RectangleShape1.Click, 
            OvalShape1.Click, LineShape1.Click
    Dim i As Integer = ShapeContainer1.Shapes.Count
    MsgBox("There are " & CStr(i) & " shapes in the collection.")
End Sub

private void Shapes_Click(System.Object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
    int i = shapeContainer1.Shapes.Count;
    Console.WriteLine("There are {0} shapes in the collection.", i);
}
